My recommandation for book(hardcopy resource): 1. stolen continents-the americas through indian eyes since 1492 by Ronald Wright 2. 1491 by Charles C. Mann 3. south and meso-american native spirituality edited by gary H. Gossen 4. Born to die- disease and new world conquest, 1492-1650 by Noble David Cook.5. the spanish struggle for justice int eh conquest of america by Lewis Hanke 6. the great encounter-native peoples and european settlers in the americas, 1492-1800 by Jayme A. Sokolow
my recommendation for electronic resources:
1. History without evidence: latin american inequality since 1491 by jeffrey G. Williamson address: http://www.nber.org/papers/w14766
2.reconstructing native american population history by Reich D.
3. Sepulveda, las casas, and the other:exploring the tension between moral universalism and alterity by Daniel R. Brunstetter
4political studies: 2011 vol 59, 733-752 just war against barbarians: revisiting the valladolid debates between sepulveda and las casas. by daniel r. brunstetter and dana zartner
There is no specific topic about the paper. All I need to do is to answer following questions:
1) what were the largest political entities in the new world in 1491?
2) what was their political organization?
3) what were their religious institutions?
4) how did the conquistadors and their supporters use native religious practice to justify their conquest?
5) what was the population of the new world in 1600 (my suggestion for this question: address the impact of european(disease, war, etc…))
