Abstract: Abstract Feudal society had been established by the eleventh century: within the framework of the estate, the organization of production (bondage, forced labor, corvée) and the extortion of surplus labor (in the form of rent in labor) were carried out for the benefit of the seigneur, an exalted landlord and possessor of political and jurisdictional prerogatives.
