Book excerpt: El autor realiza una recopilación de trabajos publicados en distintas fuentes, especialmente en el Anuario de Historia del Derecho Español y en las Actas y Estudios de congresos orga­nizados por el Instituto Internacional de Historia del Derecho Indiano. Los trece capítulos que integran la obra configuran dos tomos. En el primero, el autor efectúa el análisis de la evolución histó­rica de la Real Audiencia en Indias, y toma como modelo para ello la Real Audiencia de los Confines o de Guatemala y Nica­ragua, la cual es expuesta en su evolución desde el siglo XVI hasta el XIX: sus sedes, cambios en la extensión territorial y presidentes. El primer presidente fue Alonso Maldonado en­tre 1544 y 1548, con una actuación polémica. Finalmente, se hace mención de concretos procedimientos criminales segui­dos contra relevantes personalidades, como Vasco Núñez de Balboa. En cuanto a los seis capítulos del tomo II, exponen la evolución de la Santa Inquisición en los dos Virreinatos de Perú y Nueva España. Hasta 1569 opera la Inquisición episcopal u ordinaria hasta que, a partir de ese año, se constituyen los Tribunales de la Santa Inquisición en los Virreinatos, con lo que operan los Comisarios y Fiscales del Santo Oficio en el territorio de obis­pados y arzobispados. A continuación se centra en el sistema de comunicaciones entre España e Indias: bajo la Casa de Austria opera la insti­tución del «Correo Mayor de las Indias, Islas y Tierra Firme del Mar Océano, descubiertas y por descubrir», junto con los «navíos de aviso» a partir de 1561: dos flotas de Indias que realizaban un viaje anual. Bajo los Borbones, entre 1764-1802, operan los «Correos Marítimos a Indias»: un sistema de fraga­tas capaces de transportar mensualmente hasta 200 toneladas de correo y mercancías, desde La Coruña hasta La Habana. En el siglo XIX predominan los concesionarios privados: así, en­tre 1861 y 1898, la empresa naviera del marqués de Comillas. Este tomo II se cierra con la intervención de Pedro Rodríguez de Campomanes en el devenir de la Real Compañía de Fili­pinas entre 1790 y 1797, y sus aportaciones doctrinales y de mejora de la gestión.

This book was released on 2019-09-06 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropological histories and historical geographies of colonialism both have examined the material and discursive processes of colonization and have identified the opportunities for different kinds of relationships to emerge between Europeans and the indigenous people they encountered and in different ways colonized. These studies have revealed complex, differentiated, colonializing and colonialized identities, shifting and ambiguous political relations, social pluralities, and mutating and distinctive modes of colonization. This book focuses on the complementary historical, linguistic, and archaeological evidence for indigenous resistance and resilience in the specific form of parlamento political negotiations or attempted treaties between the Spanish Crown and the Araucanians in south-central Chile from the late 1600s to the early 1800s. Armed conflict, the rejection of most Spanish material culture, and the use of the indigenous Mapundungun language at parlamentos were obvious forms of Araucanian resistance. From a bigger picture, the book is based on an interdisciplinary perspective and asserts that historical archeology can provide better interpretations of past societies only if combined with other disciplines experienced by the treatment of existing data for historical periods, such as those provided by the written documents and which can be subjected to an anthropological, ethnohistorical, and linguistic reading by these disciplines. This creates tension because complementarity but also requires a questioning of the methods themselves as an offset look in order to include the other disciplinary perspectives.​

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Colonial Adventures: Commercial Law and Practice in the Making addresses the question how and to what extend the development of commercial law and practice, from Ancient Greece to the colonial empires of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, were indebted to colonial expansion and maritime trade. Illustrated by experiences in Ancient Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and Australia, the book examines how colonial powers consciously or not reshaped the law in order to foster the prosperity of homeland manufacturers and entrepreneurs or how local authorities and settlers brought the transplanted law in line with the colonial objectives and the local constraints amid shifting economic, commercial and political realities.

This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: http://dx.doi.org/10.12946/gplh3 http://www.epubli.de/shop/buch/48746 "Spanish colonial law, derecho indiano, has since the early 20th century been a vigorous subdiscipline of legal history. One of great figures in the field, the Argentinian legal historian Víctor Tau Anzoátegui, published in 1997 his Nuevos horizontes en el estudio histórico del derecho indiano. The book, in which Tau addressed seminal methodological questions setting tone for the discipline’s future orientation, proved to be the starting point for an important renewal of the discipline. Tau drew on the writings of legal historians, such as Paolo Grossi, Antonio Manuel Hespanha, and Bartolomé Clavero. Tau emphasized the development of legal history in connection to what he called “the posture superseding rational and statutory state law.” The following features of normativity were now in need of increasing scholarly attention: the autonomy of different levels of social organization, the different modes of normative creativity, the many different notions of law and justice, the position of the jurist as an artifact of law, and the casuistic character of the legal decisions. Moreover, Tau highlighted certain areas of Spanish colonial law that he thought deserved more attention than they had hitherto received. One of these was the history of the learned jurist: the letrado was to be seen in his social, political, economic, and bureaucratic context. The Argentinian legal historian called for more scholarly works on book history, and he thought that provincial and local histories of Spanish colonial law had been studied too little. Within the field of historical science as a whole, these ideas may not have been revolutionary, but they contributed in an important way to bringing the study of Spanish colonial law up-to-date. It is beyond doubt that Tau’s programmatic visions have been largely fulfilled in the past two decades. Equally manifest is, however, that new challenges to legal history and Spanish colonial law have emerged. The challenges of globalization are felt both in the historical and legal sciences, and not the least in the field of legal history. They have also brought major topics (back) on to the scene, such as the importance of religious normativity within the normative setting of societies. These challenges have made scholars aware of the necessity to reconstruct the circulation of ideas, juridical practices, and researchers are becoming more attentive to the intense cultural translation involved in the movement of legal ideas and institutions from one context to another. Not least, the growing consciousness and strong claims to reconsider colonial history from the premises of postcolonial scholarship expose the discipline to an unseen necessity of reconsidering its very foundational concepts. What concept of law do we need for our historical studies when considering multi-normative settings? How do we define the spatial dimension of our work? How do we analyze the entanglements in legal history? Until recently, Spanish colonial law attracted little interest from non-Hispanic scholars, and its results were not seen within a larger global context. In this respect, Spanish colonial law was hardly different from research done on legal history of the European continent or common law. Spanish colonial law has, however, recently become a topic of interest beyond the Hispanic world. The field is now increasingly seen in the context of “global legal history,” while the old and the new research results are often put into a comparative context of both European law of the early Modern Period and other colonial legal orders. In this volume, scholars from different parts of the Western world approach Spanish colonial law from the new perspectives of contemporary legal historical research."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A survey of the latest scholarship on Catholic missions between the 16th and 18th centuries, this collection of fourteen essays by historians from eight countries offers not only a global view of the organization, finances, personnel, and history of Catholic missions to the Americas, Africa, and Asia, but also the complex political, cultural, and religious contexts of the missionary fields. The conquests and colonization of the Americas presented a different stage for the drama of evangelization in contrast to that of Africa and Asia: the inhospitable landscape of Africa, the implacable Islamic societies of the Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal empires, and the self-assured regimes of Ming-Qing China, Nguyen dynasty Vietnam, and Tokugawa Japan.
