Unfreedom in the middle ages took on a wide variety of forms. In this episode I talk about the ideological shifts that accompanied this change, some examples of the deals that were struck, and one highly amusing example of priestly fraud.

One would think that the economics of slavery would be simple, but then a person who thought that would clearly not be a fan of this show.

June 15, 2021 Episode 75: Slavery in the Middle Ages Part II, Teaching an Old Narrative Modern Tricks.
In this episode we spend a bit of quality time with our friend Marc Boch and discuss why he thought what he thought about slavery and serfdom, why some of it was wrong, and why some of it is still valid. This is a nice, calm episode. Some gentle laughs between friends. A bit of a palette cleanser between last episode and the next.
