bens_dadI've just come across a reference to Braudel's Provocation (you need to scroll down a bit). [ The published paper, by P.J.Taylor, is at http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0962-6298(99)00060-8 ].
Apparently Braudel's thesis is that capitalism is inherently anti-market and that capitalism is not about markets but monopolies. This may not be news to all of you, but it sure is a relief to me to be able to be anti-capitalist without being anti-market.
