- Based on 30 years of research in archives across England and the United States, this monograph is a reconsideration of ideas about community and social relations in the years between the collapse of feudalism and the English Revolution. Contemporaries believed neighbourhood to be in crisis in the face of an avaricious, capitalist mentality; yet, neighbourhood was not so much in decline as constantly contested as a category of social relations. The ideal of neighbourhood enabled contemporaries to conceptualize the small, local worlds in which they lived and the relationships between men and women, rich and poor, and insider and outsider.
