In 1526, Francisco de Vitoria arrived at the University of Salamanca. What began as a renewal of theology would ultimately transform Western thought. His reflections on human dignity, justice, and economics laid the foundations for international law, modern economic ethics, and fundamental rights. This is an intellectual journey through the School of Salamanca, revealing how its ideas on the value of goods, the limits of power, and the legitimacy of war remain relevant five centuries later. Its theologians and jurists developed revolutionary principles on fair trade, private property, and relations between states that would shape the modern world. Through rigorous and accessible analysis, the authors demonstrate why the School of Salamanca deserves to be recognized as one of the high points of Spanish and international thought.
