Beskrivning

Neoliberalism represents a significant shift in economic and political thought that has reshaped societies across the globe since the late 20th century. The authors, Steger and Roy, delve into its origins, tracing the ideas that led to this transformative ideology. They analyze the fundamental principles of neoliberalism, including the promotion of free markets, limited government intervention, and the profound belief in individual entrepreneurship and personal responsibility.

The discussion further explores the implications of neoliberal policies on various sectors, such as education, healthcare, and social welfare. Through a critical lens, the authors assess the impact of neoliberalism on inequality and social justice, raising pertinent questions about its sustainability and ethical dimensions.

As they navigate through its historical context, Steger and Roy engage with prominent thinkers and movements that have either supported or resisted this paradigm.

The concise format allows readers to grasp complex concepts without feeling overwhelmed, making it accessible to those unfamiliar with political-economic discourse. Ultimately, this exploration serves as both an introduction to neoliberal thought and a critical examination of its consequences in contemporary society.
