Abstract

Vasco de Quiroga, one of the truly great figures sent from Spain to New Spain in the sixteenth century, stands out for his contributions to the political ecclesiastical, and social development of Mexico. He was sent to the New World by the Spanish crown as a member of the Second Audienoia of Mexico in an effort to straighten out the confusion and turmoil which had resulted from ten years of struggling factionalism in the young colony and from the disastrous regime of Nuflo de Guzman and his companies of the First Audienoia.
