Mayer, Alicia
- Abstract
This work analyzes the reflections carried out in the European colonies in America on the nature and rights of indigenous peoples. The debate held between the friar Bartolomé de Las Casas and the treatise writer Ginés de Sepulveda during the first decades of the sixteenth century, on Indian rational capacity and the integration of Indians into the Christian congregation, became a referent both in Spanish colonies and in French and English possessions. Local and regional circumstances determined the way in which each nation undertook its civilizational and evangelical activities.
