Description

Explore the complex relationship between universal human rights and cultural diversity through this scholarly work from Routledge. Tensions of Modernity: Las Casas and His Legacy in the French Enlightenment examines the historical roots of modern political debates. By revisiting Europe's first encounters with Native Americans in the New World, this book provides a unique perspective on how early defenses of different peoples shaped Western thought.
