Beskrivning
Neoliberalism is often studied as a political ideology, a government program, and even as a pattern of cultural identities. However, less attention is paid to the specific institutional resources employed by neoliberal administrations, which have resulted in the configuration of a neoliberal state model. This accessible volume compiles original essays on the neoliberal era in Latin America and Spain, exploring subjects such as neoliberal public policies, power strategies, institutional resources, popular support, and social protest. The book focuses on neoliberalism as a state model: a configuration of public power designed to implement radical policy proposals. This is the third volume in the State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain series, which aims to complete and advance research and knowledge about national states in Latin America and Spain.

Recensioner i media

'For years, scholars and pundits presumed that neoliberalism meant dismantling the modern state's involvement in economic and social affairs, and that Latin America was a laboratory for the global roll-back to free markets and civil society. The authors and editors of this book dispel that myth. They show how important the state was to the remaking of social relations. This volume is a major contribution to our understanding of the history of globalization.' Jeremy I. Adelman, Henry Charles Lea Professor of History, Princeton University
