# Commercial Independence Effect
|
||||
|
||||
## Definition
|
||||
|
||||
The transformation whereby tenants and retainers become independent of great
|
||||
proprietors as commercial wealth changes spending patterns, with tenants no
|
||||
longer dependent on landlord bounty for subsistence and retainers dismissed,
|
||||
allowing regular government to function without interference from powerful
|
||||
landowners.
|
||||
|
||||
## Source Chapter
|
||||
|
||||
Book III, Chapter 4
|
||||
|
||||
## Context
|
||||
|
||||
The culmination of Smith's argument showing how commercial society breaks the
|
||||
power of great proprietors by making their dependents independent, leading to
|
||||
the establishment of regular government in both town and country.
