The Enforcement of the Statutes of Labourers, Vol. 32: During the First Decade After the Black Death 1349-1359 (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Synopsis
This book delves into the enforcement of labor statutes passed in England during the decade after the Black Death, a period of major social and economic upheaval. The author examines the methods and machinery used to implement the Ordinance and Statute of Labourers, which aimed to regulate wages and labor practices in a country devastated by the plague. The study focuses on the role of the newly created justices of laborers, analyzing their relationship with the keepers of the peace and exploring how they were appointed, supervised, and removed. By examining manuscript sources and providing a detailed account of their administrative efforts, the book contributes to our understanding of how central and local authorities grappled with the challenges of regulating the labor market and maintaining social order in the wake of a catastrophic event.
