Description: "Anthology of previously published essays on the demographic, economic, and social history of the Andean region during early colonial period. All six essays examine 'el complicado proceso de transición al sistema colonial desarrollado en el espacio regido antes por el inca.' In the lead essay, Assadourian makes a strong case for the argument that warfare (nearly continuous from the death of Huayna Capac through the rebellion of the encomenderos), and not epidemics, was the primary reason for the initial population decline of the Tahuatinsuyu"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
