| 520 | _a"The English Peasantry and the Enclosure of Common Fields" by Gilbert Slater is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the significant socio-economic changes in rural England due to the enclosure of common fields, focusing on the deterioration of village communities and the impact on peasant life. It examines the transition from communal agriculture to individual farming and the subsequent displacement of rural populations. At the start of the text, the author outlines his motivations for investigating the enclosures, acknowledging the encouragement he received from colleagues and institutions, including the London School of Economics. He discusses the historical context of enclosure, emphasizes the importance of collective ownership in maintaining rural tradition, and hints at the necessity for a renewed agricultural policy that champions the rights and livelihoods of small landholders and agricultural workers. The opening sets a framework for exploring the long-term consequences of enclosure on the fabric of English rural society, laying the groundwork for a detailed exploration of various community structures and their transformations throughout the chapters.
