Neoliberalism by Manfred B. Steger
A Very Short Introduction
A concise account that traces the intellectual roots, policy agenda, and global spread of neoliberalism as a dominant economic and political project, explaining how ideas such as market primacy, deregulation, privatization and the roll-back of the state were institutionalized from the 1970s onward. It analyzes varieties of neoliberal thought, the role of international institutions and political elites in promoting market-oriented reforms, and the social, political and environmental consequences—rising inequality, financialization and commodification—while surveying forms of resistance and alternative approaches.
