Résumé

That the commercial developments of the centuries between 1000 and 1500 are important for understanding social change is the focus for discussion in this text. The author explores the significance of the growth and mulitiplication of English towns, the growing use of money and the increasing dependance of many families upon trade. He builds these observations into a broader understanding of change, in which related legal and administrative developments ae also assessed.
