In this regard, the thesis is substantiated that the peasants had a strong sense of ownership, but in accordance with the norms of customary law and the labour principle; in this regard, the agrarian unrest of the early 20th century should be assessed not as “pogroms,” but as attempts of the community to restore justice in its usual legal sense.
