Based on four articles written by Clarence Finlayson, and published in Revista Universidad de Antioquia between 1945-1946, the nature and sense of the Conquest of America in its modernizing intention will be explored. The dispute between Las Casas and Sepúlveda in Valladolid allows us clarify that the methodological differences that both defend are not a detour towards ways of recognizing otherness, but that they are within the very colonizer spirit, axis of a totalitarian Modernity. Almost five hundred years later, Finlayson once again contemplates, under similar patterns, the indigenous peoples of the Americas.
