FEUDALIZE Meaning and Definition

1. Feudalize is a verb that refers to the act of adopting or establishing a system of feudalism within a society or organization. Feudalism is a socio-economic structure that was prevalent during the Middle Ages in Europe, characterized by a hierarchical system of land ownership and control.

   When a society or organization undergoes a process of feudalization, it means that it is transitioning towards or embracing the principles and practices associated with feudalism. This typically involves the consolidation of power, where a central authority or ruler grants land or fiefs to vassals or nobles in exchange for their loyalty, military service, or other forms of support. The vassals, in turn, may subdivide and distribute the land among their own lesser vassals, creating a pyramid-like structure of power and control.

   Feudalization may also involve the development of a complex network of obligations and duties, known as feudal rights and obligations. These encompass various forms of labor, tribute, or services owed by peasants or serfs in exchange for protection from their lord. Consequently, feudalization often leads to a highly stratified and hierarchical society, with a clear distinction between a ruling elite and a subordinate laboring class.

   Overall, the term feudalize encapsulates the process by which a society or organization embraces the core tenets of feudalism, including the establishment of a hierarchical land ownership system and the development of complex relationships of loyalty and obligation.

2. To reduce to a feudal tenure.
