Mises saw compulsory market integration as advancing both productivity and peace.

Evidence

Although Mises criticised the metaphysical ideas of constant progress, he identified a form of compulsion at work in the division of labour. It was always in the interests of the most ‘advanced’ societies to draw others into the web of social cooperation, both in the interests of greater productivity and because such cooperation fostered peace, he argued. — Jessica Whyte, The Morals of the Market, 110
