1 answer:

5 0

The growing ethnic diversity in the colonies, primarily in Spanish colonies had several consequences both positive and negative. On the positive side, there was a enrichment of cultures given the escenario where people from different parts of the world (Europe, Africa, indigenous people) and their traditions started to spread around the continent. It also helped to increase the population after the war (independence war, federalist wars, etc). On the negative side, it created a closed minded vision about the mixture of races and the purity of blood. At the same time, mixed race people ,depending on their parentage, could have more or less access to social, economic and political benefits.

Around the late 17th century a movement started that promoted individualism, reasoning, scepticism, and secularism. This movement was called the Enlightenment, or the "Age of Enlightenment". The Scientific Revolution is related to the enlightenment as people used the scientific method to understand the world around them.

The Renaissance and the Reformation had the main ideas that started this movement. Religion was very important in the life of the people at the time. Protestantism argued that salvation wasn't mediated by Church, but was rather a matter of personal faith and giving the scriptures the importance Christian Church didn't. The Reformation rejected the traditional teachings of the Church that weren't in the Bible. This led to a schism that would separate Catholic Church and what would be known as the Protestant Church. Protestantism placed emphasis on the individual and, as said before, people's salvation by faith alone and not by doing good works or sacrament.

The Reinassence and Reformation encouraged the return to the origins and the study of early manuscripts in their original languages. This marked the beginning of modern science. The Reinassence showed people they could live without the pressure of pleasing God. It promoted secular values over religious values. They were widely influenced by Roman and Greek civilization, which led to the movement of democracy.
