Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1625, explores the debate over whether Portuguese navigators had the right to claim dominion over the Indian seas and establish settlements in Asia. The author, a Portuguese legal scholar, argues that Portugal's presence in Asia was justified due to their discovery and exploration of the region. He challenges the claims of the Dutch, who were challenging Portugal's dominance in the spice trade. The book provides a fascinating insight into the legal and historical arguments used to justify European colonialism during the age of exploration.
