Abstract
The return of the death penalty. The lowering of the age of criminal culpability to 12. A vast expansion of executive powers. These are some of the policies that president Rodrigo Duterte is finding it easier to pursue since May’s midterm elections in which his friends won two-thirds of Senate seats.
