Abstract:
In its heyday in the late 1990s, neoliberalism emerged as the world's dominant economic paradigm. But the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 fundamentally shocked a globalized economy built on neoliberal assumptions. This introduction examines the origins, core claims, & considerable variations of neoliberalism.
