    Signature

    Jose Paciano Laurel Y Garcia, was born on March 9, 1891 in Tanauan (now Tanauan City), Batangas. Since the administration of President Diosdado Macapagal(1961-1965), Laurel has been recognized as a legitimate president of the Philippines.

    Laurel's Supreme court tenure may have been over-shadowed by his presidency, yet he remains one of the most important Supreme Court justices in Philippine history. He authored several leading cases still analyzed to this day that defined the parameters of the branches of government as well as their powers.

    On November 6, 1959, Laurel died (aged 68) at the Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Manila, from a massive heart attack and a stroke. He is buried in Tanauan City, Batangas.

    Rethinking history: Jose P. Laurel

    Through a film, historians rehabilitate the memory of the Philippines’ third President, seen as a wartime Japanese collaborator in popular memory

    Crises do not only bring out the best and worst in people, they also bring out conflicting perspectives after they’ve been resolved.

    Take for example the Second World War, where Filipinos both resisted and collaborated with the Japanese, where some hoarded wealth while others shared what little they had with their communities. But how about people whose actions on the surface didn’t match their intentions?

Laurel to take care of the country as the former left for the US to maintain a Philippine government-in-exile. From 1943 to liberation in 1945, Laurel gave all his efforts to that mission, yet history writes him off as a collaborator with the country’s last colonizers.

    Gray areas often get shaded over, especially as a community, society, or nation finds itself rebuilding not only its infrastructure and institutions but also its identity as a people. Understandably, in the immediate postwar years, and in light of US hegemony at that time, Philippine historians and educators were forced to
