See, especially, The World We Have Lost (2nd ed. 1971). See, also, his contributions to the volume Household and Family in Past Time (Cambridge, 1972) which he co-edited with Richard Wall : ' Introduction : the history of the family ', 1-73, and ' Mean household size in England since the sixteenth century', 125-58, On this subject Laslett has also co-authored an essay with E. A. Hammel, 'Comparing household structure over time and between cultures', Comparative Studies in Society and History, xvi (1974), 73-109. 5 Household and Family in Past Time has attracted a great deal of critical attention. Among the most far-reaching reviews the following stand out: E. P. Thompson (anon.), 'Under the rooftree', The Times Literary Supplement, no. 3713 (4 May 1973), 485-7; L. K. Berkner, 'The use and misuse of census data for the historical analysis of family structure ',

Cet article tend à évaluer la riche moisson de recherches parues depuis une quinzaine d'années à propos de trois aspects importants des hypothéses originelles concernant la proto-industrialisation. Les auteurs proposent d'importantes modifications du modèle démographique de la proto-industrialisation. Puis ils se penchent sur des problèmes négligés jusqu'ici, concernant notamment les groupes engagés dans des activités proto-industrielles et l'interpénétration des activités agricoles et de l'industrie à domicile. Ils examinent enfin la coexistence et la rivalité simultanée entre proto-industrie ou industrie à domicile d'une part et industrie mécanisée d'autre part, situation qui a survécu jusqu'en plein vingtiéme siécle.
