| 9. | Clerical Poll-Taxes in the Diocese of Lincoln 1377-81 (Publications of the Lincoln Record Society)
Hardcover (296 pages) by A.K. McHardy (Lincoln Record Society)
The clergy of England, like the laity, were subjected to a series of poll-taxes within a short space of time. This volume prints the surviving assessments made of the clergy of the diocese of Lincoln in the years 1377, 1379 and 1381. Most of the material relates to the old county of Lincoln (now Lincolnshire and South Humberside) but there are also surveys of Leicestershire, Rutland, most of Bedfordshire, and parts of Huntingdonshire and Hertfordshire. These poll-tax asessments represent what was virtually a census of the clerical population whose members were listed parish by parish. The documents show us not only that the number of clergy was very great, but that most were without benefices, and that they tended to gather in areas of high prosperity. Publication of this material offers the opportunity to make a reassessment of the clergy and, hence, church of late medieval England.

| 10. | From Rates to the Poll Tax: Local Government Finance in the Thatcher Era
Hardcover (160 pages) (Edinburgh University Press)
A comprehensive critique of the Conservatives' attempts to reform local government finance since 1979. Covering capping and penalties, the Community Charge and value-for-money techniques, it discusses both the ideologies behind the policies and the methods used to put them into practice. The authors argue that Conservative policy has failed in the past because it was ideology-driven, and not founded on a sound analysis of the problems involved. They conclude that if the Conservative agenda remains one of local government control, the Council Tax and other reforms will suffer similar fates.
