"Having established that free cities developed the first truly modern market-friendly legal institutions, Salter and Young advance their most provocative claim: McCloskey (2010) gets the timing wrong on her Bourgeois Dignity thesis. Instead, Salter and Young (2023, pp. 202–206) argue that self-governing medieval cities cultivated bourgeois virtues and lent dignity to merchants in the High Middle Ages."
