This book evaluates the everyday use of petitions in administrative and judicial settings and contrasts these with more assertive forms of political petitioning addressed to assemblies or rulers. It traces the boundaries between ordinary and adversarial petitioning and shows how non-elites could become involved in politics through petitioning.

Petitioning has evolved from a humble means of seeking favors to a more assertive and participatory practice in the early modern period. This book explores the contrast between ordinary petitioning and adversarial petitioning, focusing on Scotland, England, and Denmark. It examines how non-elites could engage in politics through petitioning and the responses of authorities to participative petitions. The book demonstrates the significance of collective petitioning in articulating early modern public opinion and shaping contemporary ideas about opinion formation.
The chapters in this book were originally published in the journal "Parliaments, Estates & Representation."
