How do peasants, producing mainly for themselves, become capitalist
farmers, producing largely for sale? What happens to farm sizes,
farming practices, and the relationships between cultivators and
others in the process of this transition? How far does it vary from
region to region? Is it inherent in the peasantry, or must it be
instigated by landlord, townsfolk or the state? These are some of
the questions addressed by Goeran Hoppe and John Langton in this
1995 study of rural change in Sweden. Eschewing both traditional
narrow empiricism, and the recent trend to over-employ modern
social theory, the authors have carefully combined theories about
the transition from peasantry to capitalism with meticulous
analysis of the abundant Swedish records. In doing so, they reveal
the wide geographical variety and rich socioeconomic complexity of
the changes which occurred in the process of modernization in the
nineteenth century.
