Uncommon Ground: Rethinking our...

Patrick Galbraith

‘A curious-minded and subtle intervention in the politics of the countryside’ Sunday Times
'Galbraith spent three years investigating the truth about rural Britain and how we treat it. Uncommon Ground is the brilliant result' Daily Telegraph
'Very funny. Acutely observed. An attempt to look beyond the usual clichés of country life' Observer
“Brilliant. This book is a sort of necessary clever trespass itself, on everyone’s notions about ‘our land’.”Country Life
"Filled with voices from people who don’t always make the headlines in the UK land access debate."Scotsman
The countryside is under increasing pressure and people, the science shows, need nature. Access to the countryside is essential for our health, our happiness and our future. But does nature need us?
In January 2023, the largest land access demonstration since the 1930s took place on a bright wintery morning on Dartmoor. The access movement demands that the countryside be thrown open. This, they argue, would help nature by giving the public the opportunity to hold farmers and wealthy landowners to account.
But would it really work for Britain’s growing population to spill out across the countryside, and is access quite as restricted as we are led to believe?
In Uncommon Ground, Patrick Galbraith takes us on an extraordinary tour of rural Britain, from the Hebrides to Devon, and from Anglo-Saxon England to the present day. To uncover the truth and fully understand our deep connection with the land, he meets farmers, Irish Travellers, politicians, salmon poachers, and the nation's most-hated landowners, as well as activists calling for a total abolition of the right to own land.
In his much-celebrated style, Galbraith works hard to listen to those who often don’t get listened to. This raking survey of our fast-changing country, reveals the essence of rural Britain's soul. Uncommon Ground argues that what matters is not greater access but how we engage with the land and demands that landowners give us more opportunities to do so, while also giving endangered wildlife the right to tranquility.
Galbraith's Uncommon Ground is a top pick in non-fiction, offering a deep dive into the science of agriculture and the sociology of rural Britain. The book explores the delicate balance between public access and environmental protection, examining the political policies that shape our interactions with the land and the ecosystems that inhabit it.
For fans of John Lewis-Stempel (England), Benedict Macdonald (Cornerstones), Lee Schofield (Wild Fell), Isabella Tree (Wilding), and Derek Gow (Birds, Beasts and Bedlam).

Of The Social Contract -...

Jean Jacques Rousseau

"Man was born free, and he is everywhere in chains" 
These are the famous opening words of a treatise that has not ceased to stir vigorous debate since its first publication in 1762. Rejecting the view that anyone has a natural right to wield authority over others, Rousseau argues instead for a pact, or 'social contract', that should exist between all the citizens of a state and that should be the source of sovereign power. From this fundamental premise, he goes on to consider issues of liberty and law, freedom and justice, arriving at a view of society that has seemed to some a blueprint for totalitarianism, to others a declaration of democratic principles.It's publication in 1762 lead to great discussion about 'what is government' on both sides of the Atlantic, and is still essential reading today. 
How much government is too much? What rights should be given up for government? It is the Social Contract which is the foundational discussion on these topics.

Control through Dependency -...

Cito Harder

Dependency is one of the most powerful tools of control, shaping the way individuals behave, think, and perceive their own agency. When someone is made to rely heavily on another person, organization, or system, their ability to make independent choices becomes severely restricted. This loss of autonomy often leads to a dynamic where the dependent individual feels trapped, unable to break free due to financial, emotional, or social limitations. Understanding how dependency is used as a control mechanism is essential for recognizing when it is being manipulated for someone else’s gain.
At its core, dependency-based control thrives on restricting access to critical resources. These resources can be financial, such as when a controlling partner withholds money or employment opportunities to keep the other person reliant on them. It can also be emotional, as seen in relationships where one person conditions love and approval on the other’s compliance. In extreme cases, entire organizations or governments create a structured form of reliance, making individuals believe that they cannot survive without their continued support.
A key component of dependency control is fostering a sense of learned helplessness. When people are repeatedly placed in situations where they feel incapable of acting on their own, they begin to believe that they are inherently powerless. Over time, this mindset erodes self-confidence and discourages any attempt to challenge the controlling force. Those who manipulate dependency often reinforce this belief by convincing individuals that the outside world is dangerous, that they are not competent enough to succeed alone, or that their well-being is entirely dependent on maintaining the current relationship or system.
