Description
The Austerity State by Stephen McBride and Bryan M. Evans explores the persistence of austerity policies in countries worldwide since the 2008 economic crisis. The authors argue that these measures are rooted in neoliberal ideology, which shifts blame from the private sector to public debt. A critical examination of the accepted discourse around austerity measures, this book delves into the reasons behind their continued prevalence. The contributors challenge the ahistorical analysis of the crisis and its impact on global economies. By shedding light on the underlying factors driving austerity policies, The Austerity State provides a valuable insight into the complex issues surrounding economic recovery and public policy.
