Summary: "De Las Islas Filipinas" by Luis Prudencio Alvarez y Tejero is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work reflects on the state of the Philippines during the author's time and aims to advocate for the necessary reforms to improve the administration and governance of the islands, particularly focusing on the justice system and economic policies. Alvarez y Tejero draws from his personal experiences living in the Philippines, highlighting the need for better governance to foster prosperity among its inhabitants. The opening of the text introduces Alvarez y Tejero’s position as a representative for the Philippines in the Spanish Cortes, where he expresses a deep sense of gratitude towards the islands. He recounts the sacrifices he made to advocate for their interests upon his return to Spain after a lengthy absence. However, upon his arrival, he discovers that significant legislative changes render his mission moot. This prompts him to share insights and recommendations based on his twelve years of experience in the Philippines, particularly regarding the administration of justice, the roles of local magistrates, and the pressing need for reform to enhance the islands' stability and growth. The author emphasizes the importance of understanding the local customs and traditions while proposing legal and administrative changes to ensure justice and development.
