The Spanish Struggle for Justice in the Conquest of America by Lewis Hanke
An account of Spain's effort in the 16th century to tackle the legal and moral questions raised by the meeting of Europeans and American native peoples. Hanke contends that Spain was not destructive in its conquests of the territories and cultures of Middle and South America, but rather sought to bring those New World lands and peoples under its control in a just and considerate way. This volume features a previously unpublished personal and professional reminiscence by the author, who was a prominent figure in Latin American studies in the United States in the mid-20th century.| SKU | Unavailable |
