Description

On June 4, 2020, the United Nations Human Rights Council released a report detailing the human rights violations and persistent impunity in the Philippine government's campaign against illegal drugs. The report finds that "serious human rights violations, including extrajudicial killings, have resulted from key policies driving the so-called war on drugs and incitement to violence from the highest levels of government."

The majority of the victims have been poor, coming mainly from congested urban areas. This book takes a closer look at the gendered violence that the Philippine anti-drug campaign has inflicted on women. In showing how they have become a "new underclass among the urban poor", the book presents a chilling illustration of the prevailing climate of impunity and its dreadful consequences.
