Is feudalism bad?
Personally, I would say it was neither good nor bad. It might have been necessary, but it is hard to tell. This is a value judgment that is far more complicated than it appears. Most people today, given the choice to live in a feudal society, would probably decide not to do it unless they were the head of that society, or at least near the top. But to the people of the time, feudalism provided a measure of security that was a lot better than some of the alternatives, which included chaos and anarchy. The centralized monarchies of Western Europe were not strong enough to provide stability from the top. The stability had to come locally. Feudal lords and freeholders provided a level of organization and protection to the serfs they otherwise would not have had.
