220038 Gleichheit und Ungleichheit in vormodernen Gesellschaften (S) (WiSe 2025/2026)

Contents, comment

Gleichheit und Ungleichheit sind zentrale Begriffe, um vormoderne Gesellschaften zu charakterisieren. Eine klassische Interpretation der Geschichtswissenschaft lautet, dass vormoderne Gesellschaften über Ungleichheitsparameter organisiert waren, z.B. Stände im mittelalterlichen oder frühneuzeitlichen Europa, während moderne Gesellschaften über das Paradigma der Gleichheit strukturiert seien. Das Seminar wird vormoderne Gesellschaften daraufhin befragen, wie Gleichheit auch in normativ-rechtlichen Ungleichheitssystemen hergestellt oder ausagiert werden konnte.
