  • EL CONCEPTO DE LEY NATURAL COMO INSTRUMENTO INTEGRADOR EN EL IMAGINARIO NOVOHISPANO Virginia Aspe Armella Filosofía Thomas Aquinas Alonso de la Veracruz Bartolomé de las Casas Juan Ginés de Sepúlveda The present research is about what was understood by Natural Law by the most relevant thinkers of XVI century New Spain. The author tries to prove that, due to the concept of Natural Law, the suppression of the eurocentric perspective regarding the nahuas’ uses and customs was facilitated. Doubtless, not all thinkers of that time had the same interpretation of this concept. Authors such as Juan Ginés de Sepulveda interpreted it in a civilizational way, while others like Alonso de la Veracruz and Bartolomé de las Casas interpreted it from a modal perspective. These latter authors were the ones that, due to such perspective, were able to oppose concepts such as slavery and barbarism. 2008 artículo científico 0188-6649 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=323028510004 es http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3230 Tópicos, Revista de Filosofía application/pdf Universidad Panamericana Tópicos, Revista de Filosofía (México) Num.34
