Quote from Greif:  
  
"Yet this private order was not, as advocates such as Friedrich A. von   
Hayek and Milton Friedman would have us believe, a result of   
'spontaneous order' among economic agents. Rather, it was a product of   
intentional and coordinated efforts by many individuals [...]." Greif   
(2006: 389)
