@prof_gabriele @BananaScientist @GoingMedieval @OurWorldInData It’s obviously hard to be precise here, but now that I have a copy of Eisner he seems to have pretty good documentation to estimate a range … the review you linked seems to effectively challenge some of Pinker’s interpretations but not dispute that homicide rates were higher. — PolitiTweet.org

@prof_gabriele @GoingMedieval What’s going on with the @OurWorldInData numbers? I don’t have J-STOR so I can’t access Eisner (2003) that they’re citing for these very high homicide rates. https://t.co/Kw6WYsJzwa — PolitiTweet.org

@prof_gabriele @BananaScientist @GoingMedieval @OurWorldInData I gotcha, I mean I guess I wouldn’t necessarily take “Medieval Europe had much higher murder rates” to the bank without any caveat. But it definitely seems relevant to the question of whether it’s an encouraging precedent for de-policing. — PolitiTweet.org
