Tawney treats here of the transition from small land- holdings into a system of capitalism. Considered are: Various classes of landholders, freeholders, customary tenants, consolidation of holdings, growth of the land market, economics of the small cultivator, enclosures, the struggle for the commons, displacement of tenants, increase in pauperism, the Poor Law, and the general undermining of the old tenant rights. Also, the legal and adminis- trative aspects of each problem, including the successes and failures of state intervention. The Work has an importance ‘‘at once economic, political and legal.” This sixteenth century struggle may be regarded as a long step in the commercialising of English life.” ‘ 1018 Taxation.
