Focusing on towns, cities, villages, corporations, colliers and
tradesmen, these studies of the market and market culture provide
an insight into the social, political and economic relationships of
18th-century Britain and Ireland. The book offers evidence of the
heterogeneity of these relations, but also demonstrates, that, for
all the apparent differences from place to place and time to time,
on basic issues of provisioning there was remarkable uniformity.
Among the topics discussed are protest in relation to customary
corn measures, opposition to turnpikes, resistance to the Cider
Tax, scarcity and market management in Bristol, the moral economy
of "the English middling sort", Oxford food riots, and the Irish
famine of 1799-1801.
