<html> <p>The historical development of Europe is closely related to Ancient Rome. It is this state association that has influenced all historical trends for many centuries. In this regard, we must consider historical processes in the context of the history of ancient Rome.</p> <p><img src="https://imgp.golos.io/0x0/https://pp.userapi.com/c604729/v604729765/36d1c/B0dMniOELHc.jpg" width="960" height="480"/></p> <p>As everyone knows, the basis of the life of Roman society lay the slave system. Over the period of his existence, he went through several stages of transformation. In particular, we can trace how, from classical slavery, it has become a feudal system.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Here it is worthwhile to compare two concepts: the slave-owning and feudal system. The first concept is characterized by the complete dependence of the slave on his master. A servitude man could be sold, punished, and in some periods of the development of the system - to kill. At the heart of feudalism are mutually beneficial conditions for cooperation between a bonded man and a feudal lord. The first has the appearance of freedom, it has land, tools, but it must work not only on its own land, but also on the land. Unlike slaves, feudal-dependent citizens had somewhat more extensive rights. In particular, the tools and land belonged to them. But, they did not have the right to move freely from one master to another. All rights and duties of feudal-dependent citizens were fixed by law.</p> <p><br></p> <p>The transition from one type of social relations to another is due to the earlier Middle Ages. It was during this period that the first signs of feudalism were born. Than it is caused? First of all, we can see that at the beginning of our era the crisis of slave-owning relations is growing.</p> <p><br></p> <p>It should not be forgotten that the slave-owning economy could be considered cost-effective only as long as the slaveholder could exploit his slaves to complete wear and tear. He did not spare those who worked for him, because he understood that he could always replace one slave with another. But this situation began to change at the beginning of the 2nd century AD. The constant influx of new labor began to be excised. Accordingly, the cost of slaves began to grow in proportion to the increase in demand.</p> <p><br></p> <p>These reasons formed the basis for the revision by slave owners of their own priorities, with regard to the exploitation of slaves. They understood that it was necessary to build a new kind of relationship that would presuppose long-term exploitation of slaves, with the possibility of a natural reproduction of labor.</p> <p><br></p> <p>It was during this period that the law of the state rises on the protection of the slave. For the first time, since the appearance of slave-owning relations, certain rights are enshrined behind a bonded man. In particular, the slave gets the opportunity to start a family. In this case, the law prohibits the severing of family ties. That is, now the slaveholder has no right to separate family members. Since the 2nd century AD, the slave-owner has lost the opportunity to independently manage the life of his slave. The slave can now be executed only by a court order. In addition, a bonded person gets the opportunity to go to court, in case of mistreatment with him and his family.</p> <p><br></p> <p>The most important is that legislation extends the list of opportunities and ways to provide slaves free. But the main reason for the growth of slave labor productivity can be considered not this, but the fact that they receive not only more rights, but also a certain amount of personal property that is not torn away. In particular, slaves received for personal use not only things, but also tools. In the countryside, they received small plots of land. In ancient Rome, it all began to be called - peculium. This practice began to extend to all farms of the slaveholder. Particularly vividly, these relations were manifested in large estates - latifundia. In this case, the lord grants to the slave a certain amount of land. The servant works on it, and pays to the master a certain tax on the harvest. From this time, the slave was forbidden to sell separately from peculium. That is, it could only be sold with a piece of land attached to it.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Thus, as we see, it is the evolution of the slave-owning system of Ancient Rome that influenced the development and transformation of one type of social relationship. In the other. The change in the system was gradual. At the same time, we must not forget that the development of these relations was influenced by the neighborhood with primitive communal tribes who did not know what slavery was. We see how the basis of the relationship between the slave and the master begins to be dominated by economic reasonableness - the benefit. In fact, it turns out that the economic component of the relationship influences the development of this or that system.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Yes, the theme of the transition from the slave system to the feudal system is quite extensive. It is impossible to reveal all the features in one, relatively small post. Therefore - the continuation follows ... We Subscribe to my blog. There will be a lot of interesting from the history of our world.</p> <p><br></p> <p>A photo</p> <p><br></p> <p>At the heart of the consideration of this subject are the materials of the lectures of the teachers of ONU.
