THE RELATIONS OF BANDITS WITH THE CENTRAL STATE AND FEUDAL AUTHORITIES

Summary/Abstract: Banditry is a social phenomenon that begins from the first periods of history to the formation of civilized societies. Banditry is a phenomenon raised by powerless state structures. Economic and social laws become invalid in times when the central state power becomes weak for a variety of reasons; all kinds of injustice goes on. The collapse of the central state authority increases the persecution and injustice. Such adverse conditions cause the emergence of banditry, a form of insurrection and insurrection in society. The unfavourable behaves in the local government units also encourage banditry activities. Particularly where the rulers are from the local population and some complex local relations exist, the regions are most favorable for banditry. As long as these regions are socio-economically backward and far from the central authority and remain indifferent, feudal forces have a high capacity to direct the people and the influence of central state policies is low. In these precapitalist and territorial governed areas, permanent competition among the leading indigenous families of the region creates a natural demand for bandits and gives them a political importance. Therefore, the feudal authorities holding the local government, rather than having to compromise with the bandit; they benefit from it.
