The article explains that the thesis about the non-existence of the Bohemian serfdom originated already in the error of Karl Grünberg and Alfred Fischel who misunderstood the 17th century discussions on the legality of serfdom as proofs of the non-existence of serfdom. Whereas Grünberg and Fischel based their judgment on the comparison with Roman slavery, today serfdom is compared with African American slavery. For this reason, the last section draws some preliminary comparisons with the slavery of African Americans. It points out the role of violence and racism, but also the fact that serfs were paying taxes.
