In this article I argue that the study of contextual issues in economics has been limited in its scope because economists have mostly conceived of the environment as a constraint on individual action. I identify and discuss three conventions that pull economists into such conceptualization of the environment. For each of the three I provide ways forward for contextual economics to avoid the pull. I then employ insights from the recent cognitive science on socially extended mind to demonstrate how the project of contextual economics as envisioned in this article can benefit from reconceptualizing the environment not as a constraint on individual action but as a resource for constituting socially extended cognitive processes. Rather than being simply about gathering more and better data, contextual economics can offer a powerful approach for studying social world based on entangled interactions between individual actors and their environments.

This paper compares Deirdre McCloskey’s reading of the “bourgeois reevaluation” with Sergio Ricossa’s. Italian economist Sergio Ricossa was – like McCloskey – schooled in the neoclassical, formalistic tradition, but in time drifted toward a more “Austrian” approach, as he was influenced by the work of F.A. Hayek. Like McCloskey, in a number of works Ricossa aimed to vindicate the bourgeoisie, placing what McCloskey would later call “the bourgeois deal” at the source of modern economic growth. Ricossa and McCloskey were not connected, nor friends. Yet they both arrived at re-evaluating the bourgeoisie, explicitly linking their liberalism to the historical role played by a specific class. This paper will look at their respective paths, which in some respects are parallel, and will show how their common appreciation of the Bourgeois Era went hand-in-hand with libertarianism as a political philosophy and with a strong appreciation of the Bourgeois Era in history. In the last few years, Deirdre N. McCloskey has brought together the two main research programs of her life – economic history and rhetoric – in her grandiose Bourgeois Trilogy. Besides being a tour de force in economic history (McCloskey 2006; 2010; and 2016a), the three volumes are a profound inquiry into the way in which we talked and still talk about economic matters in the West, a crucial factor in making the industrial revolution, and modern economic growth, possible. In a sense, McCloskey’s trilogy, and more generally her later works, can be seen as a bold attempt to regain legitimacy for the word “bourgeoisie.” This term is tainted and typically used as a pejorative term for the middle class. Indeed, right from the beginning: “the French aristocracy … used the term pejoratively to imply that merchants who traded for profit and employed others to work for them were money-grubbing exploiters whose values… made for dull conformity” (Lowes 2006, 24). After “the failed revolutions in Europe during the hectic year of 1848”, writes McCloskey, “a new and virulent detestation of the bourgeoisie infected the artists, intellectuals, journalists, professionals, and bureaucrats – the ‘clerisy.’” In the face of this phenomenon, “to revalue” the bourgeoisie (McCloskey 2016a, xvi) is openly a goal McCloskey set for herself. She wants “to remake a word of contempt into a word of honor” (McCloskey 2006, 87). This paper points to a surprising likeness that could help us understand the many facets of the McCloskeyian “bourgeois re-evaluation” in the context of a broader classical liberal perspective. In 1980, Italian economist Sergio Ricossa (1927 – 2016 and therefore 15 years older than McCloskey) published a pamphlet by the title Straborghese, which more or less translates as Über-Bourgeois (Ricossa [1980] 2016). A cursory glimpse of the historical circumstances of Italy at the time suggests that Ricossa might have used the term to be intellectually provocative. Christian-Democrat leader and former pr
