The failure of historians to write a thorough historical study of the Marcos years has opened the floodgates of misinformation and inaccurate narratives from both sides of the debate, says history professor Filomeno Aguilar Jr.
The lack of a nuanced and comprehensive historical study, or historiography, of the Marcos regime is why so many narratives and counternarratives of this turbulent time continue to divide Filipinos.
This was the conclusion made by eminent historian and history professor Filomeno Aguilar Jr in a speech he delivered at a gathering of historians on September 19, 2019 in Quezon City.

Duterte OKs reso extending validity of Martial Law victims compensation
by Pia Ranada February 28, 2019
The Congress resolution extends the maintenance, availability, and release of the funds for victims of Marcos Martial Law human rights violations until December 31, 2019

The seeming lack of commitment of the State to play by the rules, and the absence of oversight functions to temper these transgressions resurrect the dormant fear of many Filipinos of the horrors of an authoritarian regime.

We argue in this article that, 3 decades after he was ousted, Marcos continues to have a substantial yet invisible impact on Filipinos today: Were it not for his bad economic policies and mismanagement, the average Filipino today would now be enjoying an annual income 3 to 4 times larger than what he or she currently earns.

The Department of Education (DepEd) has committed to a curriculum change that will show the "complete" picture of Martial Law, including the "corruption and human rights abuses" during that time.

Did Marcoses really win? Sandiganbayan justice chides PCGG in P200-B case
Lian Buan Dec 25, 2019 - with Video
Justice Maryann Corpus Mañalac, although concurring in the dismissal of the case, says unequivocally that the assets of the Marcoses are ill-gotten wealth, many of which have already been recovered

A 2003 court ruling proves that the Marcoses failed to justify the acquisition of their assets which exceeded their salaries as public officials.
FACTS: Total known assets seized from the Marcos family are way above the legitimate income they earned during the time they occupied Malacañang, computed in a 2003 Philippine Supreme Court (SC) ruling at only US$304,372.43. The Marcoses have failed to show proof of other legitimate sources of their wealth, thus the High Court used this to declare the family's Swiss deposits as ill-gotten.

The missing paintings have 'a lot of value' that can be used to compensate victims of Martial Law, says human rights lawyer Robert Swift
