1. A Brief History Of Neoliberalism
This book provides a critical examination of neoliberalism, tracing its origins and development from the late 20th century to its pervasive influence on global economics and politics. The author argues that neoliberalism, a doctrine advocating for free markets, deregulation, and reduction in government spending, has concentrated wealth and power in the hands of a few, leading to increased social inequality and environmental degradation. Through a detailed analysis of various countries' experiences, the book highlights the consequences of neoliberal policies and calls for a reevaluation of the current economic paradigm to address its shortcomings and create a more equitable and sustainable future.
