Filipinos, they believed, had acquired immunity to Old World diseases prior to Spanish arrival; conquest was thought to have been more benign than what took place in the Americas because of more enlightened colonial policies introduced by Philip II. Conquest and Pestilence in the Early Spanish Philippines illuminates the demographic history of the Spanish Philippines in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and, in the process, challenges these assumptions. In this provocative new work, Linda Newson convincingly demonstrates that the Filipino population suffered a significant decline in the early colonial period. Newson argues that the sparse population of the islands meant that Old World diseases could not become endemic in pre-Spanish times. She also shows that the initial conquest of the Philippines was far bloodier than has often been supposed and that subsequent Spanish demands for tribute, labor, and land brought socioeconomic transformations and depopulation that were prolonged beyond the early conquest years. Comparisons are made with the impact of Spanish colonial rule in the Americas. Newson adopts a regional approach and examines critically each major area in Luzon and the Visayas in turn. Building on a wide range of primary and secondary sources, she proposes a new estimate for the population of the Visayas and Luzon of 1.57 million in 1565--slightly higher than that suggested by previous studies--and calculates that by the mid-seventeenth century this figure may have fallen by about two-thirds."]]]],["element",{"elementId":"145"},["name","Num Pages"],["description"],["elementTextContainer",["elementText",{"elementTextId":"25355"},["text","434"]]]],["element",{"elementId":"187"},["name","Attachment Title"],["description"],["elementTextContainer",["elementText",{"elementTextId":"25356"},["text","Google Books Link"]]]]]]],["tagContainer",["tag",{"tagId":"452"},["name","History / Asia / Southeast Asia"]],["tag",{"tagId":"300"},["name","Social Science / Demography"]]]]
