The social system under the Brehon Laws certainly contained many elements that were laudable, especially given the context of the time in which they existed and by comparison to contemporary systems, but it was far from being a utopian society.

In this short clip, Kevin tackles just a few of these issues and helps to bring some context to why things happened the way they did.

In this segment, Kevin discusses how justice was not blind, slavery, the status of women, but this is by no means a comprehensive list of the features that would not be compatible in today's world.
