The sources of peasant rebellion, according to Victor Magagna, may be found not in class conflict but in the structure of rural communities. Drawing on local histories of medieval or early modern England, France, and Russia and of Meiji Japan and nineteenth-century Spain, Magagna offers an innovative account of the significance of community institutions and politics in rural societies.
