Ancient Law
Russian ruler whose enactment introducing serfdom is discussed as possibly intended to preserve peasant cooperation.
But the pressure of this superior ownership has never crushed the ancient organisation of the village, and it is probable that the enactment of the Czar of Russia, who is supposed to have introduced serfdom, was really intended to prevent the peasants from abandoning that co-operation without which the old social order could not long be maintained.
Law in a Free State
The reigning Russian monarch, invoked as an analogy for a merely relative (kinship) rather than individual status.
Fisher on his being stigmatised as the non-brother of the Czar of Russia.
