Abstract

The article focuses on the concept of settlement. It states that the idea of settlement was counterposed to the ideas of mobility of wandering free laborers. It mentions that it is difficult to define settlement in legal and social way simultaneously as populations never stay still at one place. It highlights that strangeness is opposite to settlement as stranger is taken as someone who disrupts settlement.
