Regulation theory

[Louis Proyect <lnp3@xxxxxxxxx>]

There's an article in the Braudel Center journal I referred to yesterday
(in reference to Frank and his critics )dealing with Maori capitalism in
New Zealand, which is apparently influenced by regulation theory.
Wallerstein also refers to it in his article as one of among different
contending interpretations of why capitalism arose in the west. (As opposed
to Marxism, world systems theory and one or two others.) With all the
brilliant people on PEN-L, can somebody provide a 2 or 3 paragraph
explanation? I am just not motivated to read a whole book with everything
else I am involved with right now.
