TODD’S FAMILY SYSTEMS AND FARMS:

COMMUNIST (TOTALITARIAN)

Communitarian favors sharecropping (métayage, fixed proportion of crop taken as rent, somewhat egalitarian)

MANORIAL

Absolute nuclear favors rent (fermage, fixed gold/silver rent, individualist families being already “proletariat-like” and less able to maintain a continuous property over generations, activity is already monetized)

EXTENDED FAMILY

Egalitarian nuclear favors large properties (grande exploitation, egalitarian families are less able to maintain evenly-split properties across generations, also “proletariat-like” but activity less monetized, less individual)

FAMILY

Stem favors family farms (propriété, stem families are very apt at maintaining property across generations)
