Tom Patterson argues in his book, “The Inca Empire: The Formation and Disintegration of a Pre-Capitalist State”, that the Inca Empire was a class-stratified, state-based society, with a tributary mode of production. How was the tributary mode of production organized in the Inca Empire prior to Spanish contact? How did the Spanish insert themselves into this structure, and transform Andean society from the 1530s through the 1570s?
