土地公共权利是建立在公地基础之上的,反映了英国乡村社会中,那种古老的原始的土地关系。土地公权随着英国圈地运动的展开而逐步消亡。土地公权的消失给农村中的下层小土地所有者、茅舍农、公簿持有农、无地的小佃农、农业短工的生活带来了很大的困难。他们没有得到相应的补偿,失去了独立生存的条件,也给社会增加了不安定的因素。 Public rights to land are based on a common ground and reflect the ancient primitive land relations in English rural society. The public rights of land gradually vanished as the movement of the British enclosure moved. The disappearance of the public ownership of land has brought great difficulties to the life of the small landowners in the lower reaches of the countryside, cottage farmers, public-ownership farmers, landless small-tenant farmers and agricultural laborers. They have not been compensated correspondingly, have lost the conditions for independent existence, and have also added to the social instability.
