	Spanish colonization of the Americas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Spanish conquest and colonization of the Americas began with the arrival in America of Christopher Columbus in 1492.
		As large numbers of Indians died under the cruel working conditions in Spanish mines, ranches and encomiendas, and as de las Casas and others began to call attention to Spanish mistreatment of the natives, landowners in New Spain began to look for alternative sources of labor.
		Spanish territorial claims based on this furthest north penetration of Spain in North America were not supported at the treaty negotiations.

	Influence of Spanish owned Businesses on the Philippines
		Contrary to Spanish bureaucrats, the American government was a reliable one with officials fulfilling better their promises and doing a less arbitrary task; the main problem with taxes, for instance, was not the amount but the employees that spent the money after it was received.
		Even more, the lay Spanish citizens and their business had suffered the same as the rest of the society from the consequences of irresponsibility and rest of the Filipino society during the Spanish regime due partly to the disproportionate rule of the church in the islands.
		Spanish companies not only benefited from that, same as the rest of business in the archipelago, but their performance was relatively good under the new circumstances.

		That is to say, specific Spanish companies have subcontracted these workshops, whether consciously or not (an aspect which the companies themselves must clarify) to manufacture their garments.

	SSRN-Board Remuneration, Performance and Corporate Governance in Large Spanish Companies by Rafel Crespi-Cladera, ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In this paper we present empirical evidence on the relationship between board remuneration of a sample of large Spanish companies and a set of explanatory variables such as performance and size of the company.
		Company size is also related to board remuneration, and affects the pay-performance relationship, although is not relevant when we use an elasticity approach.
		Finally, the governance structure of companies is relevant when explaining the power of the compensation-performance relationship, and differences between the impact of ownership concentration and firm leverage on this relationship are found.
