School of Salamanca

spa_school_salamanca

The Escuela de Salamanca (the school of theologians and jurists centered on the Universidad de Salamanca through the sixteenth century) applies Thomist scholastic methods to the unprecedented questions of empire, conquest, and global commerce. Francisco de Vitoria's lectures on the rights of the Amerindians, Domingo de Soto's monetary theory, and Luis de Molina's treatment of free will produce the first systematic European thinking on natural law, international law, and economic theory. The school arms the Spanish monarchy with a body of ideas to justify its imperial project, a generation ahead of any rival power.
