Encomienda system Spanish colonists received tracts of land and Indians compelled to work it Laws of Burgos, 1513: Indians to get Christian instruction and limited work hours Indians also supposed to get protection and small wage Reality: crown cannot control colonists; encomienda system is slavery

Returns to Spain, 1515, to tell king of evils done in New World 2. Takes a few years to sink in 4. King refers him to Pres of Council of the Indies, Juan Rodriguez de Fonseca, who says “how does that concern me?”

Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies First composed 1541-42 for king (emperor) Published with amendments and additions, 1552. Widely translated and read. Las Casas’s participation in debate organized in Valladolid (Spain) on whether Indians were subhuman inspired him to publish this work.
