Title	Agricultural tenancy act of the Philippines its history, a critical study (with comments and annotations from decisions of the supreme court and the court of agrarian relations) and its philosophy.
Date	1957
Description	xv, 268 p. ; 28 cm.
Abstract	The Agricultural Tenancy Act of the Philippines is a major piece of social legislation. It is an instrument of social reform, directed towards the liquidation of the vestiges of feudal tenure practices, which for the past centuries have been chiefly responsible for under-production in agriculture and agrarian discontent and unrest. It is destined to play a vital role in the achievement of desirable agrarian patterns and agrarian peace, and in the establishment of agricultural tenancy relations upon the principle of social justice; in affording adequate protection of the rights of both tenants and landholders; in insuring an equitable division of the produce and income derived from the land; in providing tenant-farmers with incentives towards greater and more efficient agricultural production; and, finally, in encouraging their participation in the development of peaceful, vigorous and democratic rural communities. This study, which is projected to the cardinal considerations which prompted its enactment, i.e., its purposes and philosophy, and including a critical study of its provisions as interpreted by the Supreme Court and the Court of Agrarian Relations, seeks to promote sound scholarship in the new aspect of the study of law.
