  School of Salamanca - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Francisco de Vitoria, Domingo de Soto, Martín de Azpilcueta (or Azpilicueta), Tomás de Mercado, and Francisco Suárez, all scholars of natural law and of morality, founded a school of theologians and jurists who undertook the reconciliation of the teachings of Thomas Aquinas with the new economic order.
Nonetheless, in de Molina's view, the power of society over the individual is greater than that of a mercantile society over its members, because the power of the government of a nation emanates from God's divine power (as against merely from the power of individuals sovereign over themselves in their business dealings).
Francisco de Vitoria was perhaps the first to develop a theory of ius gentium (the rights of peoples), and thus is an important figure in the transition to modernity.

Vitoria did argue that Spanish sovereigns might send governors for those natives who would clearly be benefited by that; but it must be for their welfare and not for the profit of the Spaniards.
Vitoria taught, "Subjects whose conscience is against the justice of a war may not engage in it."4 However, later Vitoria stated that subjects are bound to follow their ruler in a defensive war or an offensive war that is justified because they should not betray their state to the enemy.
Vitoria also stated, "The deliberate slaughter of the innocent is never lawful in itself."5 He did acknowledge that collateral damage could occur in a just war, and some innocent people may be killed, as when a city is stormed, for example.

 Book Reviews
Whether it is Vitoria or rather Grotius who deserves the honorary title "father of modern international law" is but a matter of faith.
This is particularly true for Vitoria, whose work has not only to be ranged among the classics of our discipline, but occupies a most prominent place in theology, political ethics and the general theory of state as well.
That Vitoria can still provide valuable contributions to today's legal and political discourse might be exemplified by a rather simple but nonetheless fundamental statement he reiterates time and again (De Indis, De potestate civilis, De iure belli): Causa iusti belli non est diversitas religionis.

Francisco Vitoria was the earliest and arguably the most important of the Thomist philosophers of the counter-Reformation.
His works are of great importance for an understanding of both the rise of modern absolutism, and the debate about the emergent imperialism of the European powers, and are unusually accessible since they survive in the form of summaries of his lecture courses on law and theology.
Translated here into English for the first time, these texts comprise the core of Vitoria's thought, and are accompanied by a comprehensive introduction, chronology, and bibliography.
