    In The Origin of Capitalism Ellen Meiksins Wood makes the argument that capitalism began in rural southeastern England during the enclosures. She doesn’t really nail it down to a more specific time or place though. It would be cool if we could find the first landowner who threw his tenants off the land due to market imperatives.
