Marxism holds that feudal mining land was characterized by production relations that gave lords the upper hand. Lacking productive capital, mining land was generally a site of coercive feudal‐property relations. The idea is indefensible, as evidence shows that mining lands triggered property arrangements antagonizing lordly power. This article discusses the labor and capital relations that transformed feudal land into mining land. It argues that this transformation challenged the supremacy of feudal lords by triggering property relations relatively unconstrained by feudal lordly power. The article concludes that mining lands were sites of antagonistic relations, were capital confronted feudal landed property, aiming at isolating lords from the gains of mines.

资本与采矿权的关系：重新考虑马克思对封建矿区的理解

马克思主义认为，封建矿区的特点是生产关系使上级占了上风。缺乏生产性资本，采矿土地通常是强制性封建产权关系的场所。这个想法是无可辩驳的，因为有证据表明，采矿土地触发了与君主势力抗衡的财产安排。本文讨论了将封建土地转变为采矿土地的劳资关系。它认为，这种转变通过触发相对不受封建领主权力约束的财产关系，挑战了封建领主的至高无上。文章得出的结论是，采矿土地是对抗性关系的场所，是资本面临的封建土地财产，目的是使领主与地雷分离。
