Diane Coyle — ‘Free’ markets

Summary:
The rhetoric of ‘free markets’ is misleading. I certainly agree with this last point, as does anybody who (like me) has spent some time as an economic regulator (the UK Competition Commission in my case). Modern economies are highly regulated, and that goes for the Anglo-Saxons as much as anyone else.
