Answer:A slave is property, bound to work as his/her owner sees fit. A slave has no legally protected rights of ownership. Some slaves in some sense ‘owned’ property, or even money, but this was always at the owner’s discretion, and legally it all belonged to the owner really. Serfdom, on the other hand, was an implicit contractual relationship. The serf owed both labour and rent, usually in kind — serfdom is typical of an economy with little use of money. In return, the lord owed protection and justice. These were rough times, and a common labourer without a lord would not be able to prevent marauders seizing his land.
