agrarian revolution
The enclosure movement reached its highest between 1680 and 1760, what caused that all the
landowners unified their lands in one big land, but a lot of people lost their lands.
Having the lands for private use, and with other improvements in agriculture, there was no need to do
the fallow. Instead, they started working the land with a 4-crop rotation system where they harvested
wheat, turnips, barley, and clover, what caused an increase of the productivity and the beginning of
livestock.

egalitarian societies
First Homo Sapiens appeared around the year 200,000 BC. From then until around 9,000 BC WE KNOW FOR SURE
(95% of human existence), it’s said that we lived in communities that were egalitarian and THAT EQUALITY IS NOT
democratic. Then, the power of primitive societies was distributed as a democratic system BASED ON A

defined needs. RELATION, WE DON’T
It was general knowledge that primitive societies could be egalitarian because they were few HAVE EQUALITY AS WE
people, so they were very close and therefore, they could share resources. But they thought KNOW NOWADAYS
that low demographic growth prevented the apparition of technical developments and JUST BY KNOWING
inequalities. EACH OTHER.
But this is wrong: They were egalitarian and technical advanced, so technological advance
doesn’t rise inequalities. 1
