Jerome Bloom, a professor at Princeton University, traces the history of the relationship between Russian landowners and the peasant community from the time of the Varangian invasion to the abolition of serfdom. In his monumental and at the same time innovative work, Bloom describes the types of agriculture and the specifics of economic activity in vast areas of the country, the types and structure of rural settlements and manor houses, the system of collecting taxes and duties. The author covers not only agrarian issues, but also the life of the people - both nobles and farmers, examines the reasons for the emergence of serfdom and concludes that the enslavement of peasants determined the economic and social development of the state and formed its political structure.
