[D-G] east west

[Sylvie Ruelle]

The statement below seems more like coming from Anti-Oedipus (maybe 
somewhere in-between Imperial Representation and The Civilized 
Capitalist Machine?); it was there where DG's first formulated how and 
why capitalism actualized first in the West although all its elements 
were already in place in the Orient.  This analysis came out from DG's 
studies on Asiatic production and capitalism from the works of  Etienne 
Balazs, Maurice Godelier, and Fernand Braudel.
