" This Incurable Evil examines a topic of great importance, yet one barely treated by scholars: the enslavement of Indigenous Chileans across a considerable stretch of the colonial period but centered on the seventeenth century. This rich and important book recovers and chronicles the 'lost worlds' of the Mapuche and their neighbors. The material is compelling, and the story is compellingly told." --Kris Lane, author of Potosí: The Silver City That Changed the World, " This Incurable Evil examines a topic of great importance, yet one barely treated by scholars: the enslavement of Indigenous Chileans across a considerable stretch of the colonial period but centered on the seventeenth century. This rich and important book recovers and chronicles the 'lost worlds' of the Mapuche and their neighbors. The material is compelling, and the story is compellingly told." --Kris Lane, author of Potosí: The Silver City That Changed the World "Through extensive archival research, Berger weaves together colonial letters, diary extracts, speeches, testimonials, legal records, and laws to great effect to argue how the Mapuche successfully resisted against continued efforts of Spanish colonial enslavement." --H-Net, "This book makes a valuable contribution to the long-overlooked reality of the enslavement of Indigenous peoples within the Spanish empire. It also powerfully explores the agency of the Mapuche in different capacities as they were forced to engage with the Spanish, from the enslaved and exploited individuals within the empire to the indios amigos negotiating special privileges on its fringes to the military and diplomatic victories of the people outside it." -- The Americas

Synopsis
Documents how initial Mapuche-Spanish alliances were built and how they were destroyed by increasingly powerful slave-trading elites operating like organized crime families, Documents how initial Mapuche-Spanish alliances were built and how they were destroyed by increasingly powerful slave-trading elites operating like organized crime families The history of Spanish presence in the Americas is usually viewed as a one-sided conquest. In This Incurable Evil: Mapuche Resistance to Spanish Enslavement, 1598-1687 , Eugene C. Berger provides a major corrective in the case of Chile. For example, in the south, indigenous populations were persistent in their resistance against Spanish settlement. By the end of the sixteenth century, Spanish aspirations to conquer the entire Pacific Coast were dashed at least twice by armed resistance from the Mapuche peoples. By 1600, the Mapuche had killed two Spanish governors and occupied more than a dozen Spanish towns. Chile's colonial future was quite uncertain. As Berger documents, for much of the seventeenth century it seemed that there could be peace along the Spanish-Mapuche frontier. Through trade, intermarriage, and even mutual distrust of Dutch and English pirates, the Mapuche and the Spanish began to construct a colonial entente. However, this growing alliance was obliterated by the "incurable evil," an ever-expanding enslavement of Mapuches, and one which prompted a new generation of Mapuche resistance. This trade saw Mapuche rivals, neutrals, and even friends placed in irons and forced to board ships in Valdivia and Concepción or to march northward along the Andes. The Mapuche labored in the gold mines of La Serena, in urban workshops in Lima, in the silver mines of Potosí, or on the thousands of haciendas in between and would never return to their homes. With this tragic betrayal, Chile was left a more corrupt, violent, and polarized place, which would cause deep wounds for centuries.
