… [Kitahara Akio]
[Rural Servant]
Servants in early modern rural areas were generally called fudai, genin, geno, genjo, etc. The content of their employment relationships varied widely depending on the time period and region, but they were classified into various types, such as fudai genin, pawned servants, igeshi servants (oshikiri servants, igusare servants), indentured servants (nenkiri servants), replacement servants (ichiki servants), daily rate servants, seasonal employees, and day laborers, based on status, contract type, payment method for labor, and employment period. These types are considered important as they show the development process of employment relationships before the emergence of modern wage labor relations.
