Professor brucker contends that changes in the social order provide the key to understanding the transition of florence from a medieval to a renaissance city. In this book he shows how florentine politics were transformed from corporate to elitist. He bases his work on a thorough examination of archival material, providing a full socio-political history that extends our knowledge of the renaissance city-state and its development. The author describes the restructuring of the political system, showing first how the corporate entities that comprised the traditional social order had lost cohesiveness after the black death.
