Martial Law

Ruy Barbosa's classic treatise on the limits of martial law and the preservation of civil liberties is as relevant today as it was when it was first published in 1892. Drawing on his experience as a jurist and statesman, Barbosa argues that even in times of war or national emergency, the rights of individuals must be protected in order to ensure that justice and democracy prevail.
