REZÜMÉ SZABÓ, Attila: Communal Work Burden of Kecskemét from the End of the Occupation to 1848 (Summary) In the period between the last years of the Turkish occupation and the revolution of 1848 the gravest burden proved to be the work rent, which was organized and enforced by the magistracy in Kecskemét. It turned out to be a very grave burden during the age of the Turkish and Hungarian insurrection wars, but it formed the most substantial element of taxation in the period after 1711. The live-stock estate and later the landed property formed the basis of the work rent. Free work, in many cases redeemable for money, was employed largely m the service of the army and fortresses. Later it was employed mainly in salt transport, making roads and building bridges, and in forest plantations.
