The original title was indeed in Latin, and published under the pseudonym "Demócrates Alter" - "Democritus Junior" by Sepúlveda. -- 129.173.172.174 20:03 13 Jan 2007 (UTC)
I assume Tratado sobre las Justas Causas de la Guerra is a modern Spanish translation of his De Iustis Belli Causis. If so, the text should probably reflect the original, Latin title, but I won't change the article until I know for sure that these are the same work. -- Iustinus 18:48, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)

De Sepúlveda was fully in the school of natural philosophy - he translated Aristoteles! He argued fully in the traditional way of natural law; but also did his opponents like de Las Casas or de Vitoria. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.78.136.132 ( talk) 07:48, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
Is the comment about how Sepulveda's views would be viewed today, using the anachronistic term "racist," really useful? If so, it would be good to find a legitimate source or scholar which uses this language. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cyrusrex1545 ( talk • contribs) 05:13, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
Doesn't seem anachronistic at all. And nothing is more fitting than 6 years of ignoring this guy and his article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.212.175.30 ( talk) 13:31, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
