Summary: "Colección de Documentos Inéditos Relativos al Descubrimiento, Conquista y Organización de las Antiguas Posesiones Españolas de Ultramar" is a historical account published in the late 19th century. The work presents a compilation of documents that shed light on the discovery and conquest of Spanish territories, particularly focusing on the island of Cuba. It endeavors to provide insights into colonial administration, the treatment of indigenous peoples, and the establishment of settlements. The opening of the book sets the stage for this exploration by discussing issues faced in the administration of Cuba during the early conquest period. It introduces the writings of Bartolomé de las Casas, who advocates for the humane treatment of indigenous people amidst grievances regarding their exploitation in mining operations. The narrative details the catastrophic population decline due to harsh labor conditions, the resistance from both indigenous populations and enslaved Africans, and the resultant socio-economic struggles faced by Spanish settlers amidst calls for reform from within their own ranks. This historical account from primary sources reveals the complexities and challenges of early colonial governance and the moral dilemmas encountered by its proponents.
