Oscar Gelderblom
Develops a model of institutional change in European commerce based on urban rivalry. This book traces the successive rise of Bruges, Antwerp, and Amsterdam to commercial primacy between 1250 and 1650, showing how dominant cities feared being displaced by challengers while lesser cities sought to keep up by cultivating policies favorable to trade.
