近代英国土地所有权高度集中与租佃制的高度发展,是中古时代的封建历史遗产,是历史发展的特例,并不符合农业经济发展的一般规律。在20世纪的历史进程中,英国逐渐走向了耕者有其田的农地模式。在进入现代工业社会以后,耕者有其田农地改革造成的土地所有权的分散,很可能会导致租佃制的再度发展,以此来推进农业生产规模的扩大。传统租佃制是土地所有权高度集中的结果,而新型租佃制则是土地所有权分散的结果。 In modern England, the high concentration of land ownership and the high development of tenancy system are the ancient feudal historical heritage and the special case of historical development, which are not in conformity with the general law of agricultural economic development. In the course of the twentieth century, Britain gradually moved toward a land-for-agriculture model. After entering the modern industrial society, the dispersion of land ownership caused by the reform of farmland by farmers has the potential to lead to the re-development of the tenancy system in order to promote the expansion of agricultural production. The traditional tenancy system is the result of a highly concentrated ownership of land while the new tenancy system is the result of the fragmentation of land ownership.
