Tensions of Modernity: Las Casas and His Legacy in the French Enlightenment - Routledge Innovations in Political Theory
Brunstetter, Daniel R. (University of California, Irvine, USA)
This text revisits Europe's initial encounter with the Native Americans of the New World to shed light on how the West's initial defense of so-called 'barbarians' has influenced the way we think about diversity today, and elucidate the arguments of exclusion that unconsciously permeate the moral world we live in.
