From Chiefs to Landlords: Social and Economic Change in the Western Highlands & Islands
ISBN: 9780748610341 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This new approach to Highland history before the Clearances draws attention to little-studied yet important economic and social processes within the Highland clan system and argues that we should consider the problems of traditional Highland society, economy and environment together. Exploring how the different aspects of the clan system--chiefs and kinsmen, landlords and tenants, farming systems, production strategies and marketing--changed between the 16th-18th centuries, it shows how the character and ideology of clans and chiefdoms are inextricably part of the twin problems of...

Society in Time and Space: A Geographical Perspective on Change
ISBN: 9780521593854 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this highly original book, Robert Dodgshon suggests that in order to understand change we first need to understand the geographical circumstances under which society finds change difficult. Secondly, he shows how society's use of space is a powerful source of this inertia, and the different sources of geographical inertia are explored. By examining this inertia we learn that society has long steered change around such spaces. This is an important and innovative book and will be of interest to a range of geographers, historians and social theorists.

No Stone Unturned: A History of Farming, Landscape and Environment in the Scottish Highlands and Islands
ISBN: 9781474400749 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A survey of how Highland society organised its farming communities, exploited its resource base and interacted with its environment from prehistory to 1914
There has long been a view that the farming communities to be found in the Highlands prior to the Clearances were archaic forms. The way in which they were organised, the way in which they farmed the land and the technologies which they employed were all seen as taking shape during prehistory and then surviving relatively unchanged. Such a view first emerged first during the late nineteenth century and found repeated expression through...
