Stop, Thief! The Commons, Enclosures, and Resistance

This collection of essays by celebrated historian Peter Linebaugh explores the history of commoning, tracing the struggles of those who have fought to protect their land, resources, and communities from exploitation.

From the great revolt of 1381 to the enclosures of Ireland and America, Linebaugh brings to life the vital commonist tradition, highlighting the stories of those who have resisted the forces of enclosure and sought to preserve their commons. This indispensable collection reignites the ancient cry, "Stop, Thief!", illuminating the ongoing struggles for social justice and environmental sustainability.
