Hilbay, Florin Ternal.

Unplugging the constitution / Florin Ternal Hilbay. - Quezon City : University of the Philippines Press, c2009. - 308 p. 23 cm.

In this collection of articles and essays, the author confronts a wide range of issues ---constitutional theory, adjudication, legal hermeneutics, the bar exams, marriage, psychological incapacity, free speech, presidential immunity, liberalism, church and state --- and takes a nonconventional and, at times, critical view of standard legal discourse and prevailing social institutions. The author approaches his subjects from an interdisciplinary perspective, articulating his positions with insights from history, economics, linguistics, and philosophy. The result is a set of views that creates novel platforms for conversation and serves as a counter-push from the pull of the mainstream. (Source: http://books.google.com.ph/books)
