Answer:
In a colloquial sense, "peasant" often has a pejorative meaning that is therefore seen as insulting and controversial in some circles, even when referring to farm laborers in the developing world.[4] As early as in 13th-century Germany, the word also could mean "rustic", or "robber", as the English term villain.[5][clarification needed] In 21st-century English, the term includes the pejorative sense of "an ignorant, rude, or unsophisticated person".[6] The word rose to renewed popularity in the 1940s–1960s[7] as a collective term, often referring to rural populations of developing countries in general, as the "semantic successor to 'native', incorporating all its condescending and racial overtones".[8]
