This chapter examines the evolution of peasant communities in the county of Besalú, during the XIIth and XIIIth centuries. By 1100 mansi were the standard peasant’s holding, which could be inherited, leased or sold. Serfdom for those helding a mansus became a common feature of peasant communities and redemption fees appear in the county of Besalú with remarcable precocity. The involvement of peasants in markets and commercialization were also important characteristics of the historical evolution during this period. Finally, with the example of Batet de la Serra, it is possible to notice that peasants, acting as a community, were also able to negociate with their lords
