This is one of three volumes which together provide a full social and economic history of Germany. The history's extensive chronological range enables it to cover long-term structural developments in demography, agriculture and consumption, for instance, while examining their interaction with the social formations of the medieval and early modern periods up to the eve of industrialization. Each volume has a strong period focus; the first volume concentrates on the late-medieval "crisis of feudalism" and the age of the Reformation, with its themes of early capitalism, religious and social upheaval, and growing secular control of the church. In all the volumes, where possible, German developments are considered in the wider context of European developments.
