Contributions of feudalism and liberalism in force in Ecuadorian Society

Feudalism was a form of social and political organization based on vassalage relations between vassals and feudal lords. It began to manage in Western Europe in the 11th to twelfth centuries and was considered a transition period, since different changes and norms were given. Some of the reasons for their decline are due to economic wear due to the implementation of the currency, in addition to the diversification of land because the settlers moved to urban areas to form small cities so it caused a decentralization of power of power. Also because of commerce in cities, since the manors did not obtain profits for the work of the peasants because they were going to sell their property to several regions. On the other hand, liberalism is a philosophical doctrine that individual freedom takes above all things. Both forms of government have left a brand in society throughout history because their ideologies and customs have been acquired by the rulers of today.

Currently, certain features of these currents can be observed as their lifestyle, the commercialization and importance of agriculture. Ecuador lives from exports and these occur thanks to the work of people in the countryside who work long days freely and this has changed from feudalism since people are not exploited and obtain a fair salary. There has also been changes with the Church, because before the power of it predominated at the educational level but now education is the same for all regardless of religion.

These forms of government can affect the governance of our country. For example, Guillermo Lasso is a founder and leader of the CREO movement, a liberal movement and in favor of the public sector. In addition to this, during feudalism the marketing arose and from there the reciprocity has been managed in the exchange of goods. Since ancient times the Europeans came to conquer the Ecuadorian lands so, they have extracted land and wealth of the country. Many Ecuadorians were forced to become Christians, for this reason the Catholic Church is currently something very important and those beliefs that they acquired in the past will always be present. On the other hand, through my reading of the novel Huasipungo I was ableYou can observe the diversity of races in Ecuadorian society.

It can be said that both organizational forms have contributed to the economy of Ecuador because thanks to trade and agriculture income is generated and they remain in force in today’s society. Also the implementation of the currency, to handle a better economic and monetary system, in which little by little it was modernized in the country until reaching the dollar. Thanks to the preponderant role of land in the economy. Consequently, the urban world was reduced to its minimum expression, in a depurbanization process that began in the last times of the Roman Empire. It can be said that feudalism was diverse. In each territory, concrete peculiarities recalled. At the same time, it did not remain immutable, but suffered important changes, according to new techniques, forms of production and new markets. With this current, the disappearance of a central power arose, since governments are currently working with various powers and functions, with democracy and participation of all. On the other hand, thanks to the ideology of liberalism, people can demand their rights and live under their customs and norms, allowing more freedom for each person in relation to their religion and work.
