They originated in different periods of the twentieth century. Ordnungstheorie was developed in Nazi Germany by Eucken (1940) with the historical experience of the Great Depression and its cures, corporatism, state planning and Keynesian interventionism. Regulation theory evolved in postwar France during the 1970s with the historical experience of the trente glorieuses, the post-war boom, and its abrupt ending in 1973.
