Includes bibliographical references (p. 223-234) and index.
Freedom's just another word ... -- The construction of consent -- The neoliberal state -- Uneven geographical developments -- Neoliberalism 'with Chinese characteristics' -- Neoliberalism on trial -- Freedom's prospect. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
"David Harvey, author of The Condition of Postmodernity and The New Imperialism, here tells the political-economic story of where neoliberalization came from and how it proliferated on the world stage. While Thatcher and Reagan are often cited as primary authors of this neoliberal turn, Harvey shows how a complex of forces, from Chile to China and from New York City to Mexico City, have also played their part. In addition he explores the continuities and contrasts between neoliberalism of the Clinton sort and the recent turn towards neoconservative imperialism of George W. Bush. Finally, through critical engagement with this history, Harvey constructs a framework not only for analyzing the political and economic dangers that now surround us, but also for assessing the prospects for the more socially just alternatives being advocated by many oppositional movements."--BOOK JACKET.
