'''Jean Bodin''' (c. 1530 – 1596) was a French philosopher. He criticized [[slavery]], believing it contradicted with the teachings of [[Judaism]], [[Christianity]], and [[Islam]], and rejected [[Aristotle]]'s claim that some people are naturally destined to be slaves. While defenders of slavery pointed to its existence in [[Roman Empire (27 BCE–395 CE)|Ancient Rome]], Bodin pointed out how the Roman slave system caused frequent revolts and relied on harsh repression. He nevertheless had some [[reactionary]] views and believed a return to [[Feudalism|feudal]] monarchism would end [[Colonialism|colonial]] slavery.<ref>{{Citation|author=[[Domenico Losurdo]]|year=2011|title=Liberalism: A Counter-History|chapter=What Is Liberalism?|page=30–33|publisher=Verso|isbn=9781844676934|lg=https://libgen.rs/book/index.php?md5=5BB3406BC2E64972831A1C00D5D4BFE4|pdf=https://cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipfs/bafykbzacebhsj2yxuoudkhkjp6lzgr5jvgyhu76zxe4gw3d65gpg32a6nded4?filename=Domenico%20Losurdo%2C%20Gregory%20Elliott%20-%20Liberalism_%20A%20Counter-History-Verso%20%282011%29.pdf}}</ref>
