تعريف peonage في الإنجليزية الإنجليزية القاموس.
- Indentured servitude
- A system of paying back debt characterized by involuntary servitude
- the practice of making a debtor work for his creditor until the debt is discharged
- {i} condition of working to repay a debt; condition of being enslaved until a debt is repaid; hard labor
- the condition of a peon
- Form of involuntary servitude, the origins of which date to the Spanish conquest of Mexico, when the conquerors forced the poor, especially Indians, to work for Spanish planters and mine operators. In the U.S., the word peon referred to workers compelled by contract to pay their creditors in labour. Though prohibited under U.S. federal law, peonage persisted in some southern states through state laws that made labour compulsory. Another form of peonage exists when prisoners sentenced to hard labour are farmed out to labour camps
