German term or phrase: eine sich marktförmig organisierende Weltwirtschaft
Context:

"...wesentliche Entstehungsvoraussetzungen, Prozesse und Folgen der modernen Welt – von ... über die Ausbildung des Kapitalismus und einer sich marktförmig organisierenden Weltwirtschaft bis zu ..."

Does this simply mean "the emergence of capitalism and a global economic market"/"the emergence of capitalism and a global market economy", or is there more to it?

Notes to answerer
Asker: Many thanks! I don't think the other parts of the sentence have any real bearing on the translation of this term. The context given is probably more than actually necessary already ;-)
