Markets for Land, Labor, and Capital in Northern Italy and the Low Countries, Twelfth to Seventeenth Centuries
Comparative analysis of the markets for land, labor, and capital in north-central Italy and the Low Countries in the late Middle Ages and the early modern period reveals that urbanization in itself was not the crucial variable in the quality and effect of developing factor markets. More important was the counterweight offered in this process by territorial lords and rural interests to the influence of urban elites. Without this counterweight, urb…

Rural wage labour in the sixteenth-century Low Countries
The rise of wage labour in the countryside forms a fundamental element in the transition to a modern, capitalist economy and society. Hard data on this development, however, are scarce.

This reconstruction shows not only a high importance of wage labour, between a quarter to almost 60 per cent of rural labour inp…
The jump‐start of the Holland economy during the late‐medieval crisis, c.1350–c.1500 1
By c .1500 the Holland economy had already acquired modern traits, as witnessed by the occupational structure and the urbanization rate.

The combination of high wages in this frontier economy with increasing difficulties in arable agriculture as …

By investigating and comparing developments in three parts of the Low Countries this study tries to shed more light on the causes underlying these regional diversities. In this connection, particular attention will be paid to differences in the social distribution of landowne…
