Description

Neoliberalism: A Very Short Introduction explores the evolution and core ideas of this dominant economic paradigm. Emerging in the 1990s, neoliberalism has been associated with various political leaders and has had a significant impact on global economies. However, the 2008 Global Financial Crisis and subsequent economic volatility have led to a decline in its fortunes. This introduction examines the considerable variations of neoliberalism around the world, discussing its origins, evolution, and core ideas. It also considers whether new versions of neoliberalism might succeed in addressing the rising tide of national populism. The book brings the story of neoliberalism up to date, providing a nuanced understanding of this complex economic concept. The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press offers hundreds of titles in almost every subject area, including economics and politics.
