The Enclosure Acts, enacted in the 18th and 19th centuries, consolidated small, communal farming lands into larger, privately owned farms. This process often displaced British peasants who relied on common land for subsistence farming and grazing. As land became enclosed and privatized, many peasants lost their livelihoods and were forced to seek work in urban areas, contributing to the rise of industrial labor. The acts reflected a shift towards more efficient agricultural practices but also exacerbated social inequality and rural poverty.

Why was force necassary to get grain from the peasants during world war communism?

Because why would a peasant willingly give up his/her grain? Here it is in a nutshell: Look up agricultural collectivization and kulaks while you're at it. Stalin wanted to industrialize so one of the reasons he enslaved the peasants/land was to pay for industrialization. The money raised from the seized grain of the state farms paid for industrialization by being sold on the international market. Industrializing the country stalin claimed would benefit the soviet union.
