Publisher Synopsis
Mutant Neoliberalism is an excellent collection of essays canvassing what editors William Callison and Zachary Manfredi rightly diagnose as the changing face of neoliberalism-really, the multiplicity of national, transnational and post-national neoliberalisms-evolving in the aftermath of the 2007-2008 financial crisis. -- David Singh Grewal, UC Berkeley School of Law Engaging with neoliberalism and its mutations, offers us a way to think about the complexity and struggle of the way forward... Callison and Manfredi's collection refuses to offer guarantees about the end of neoliberalism, or even the end of the beginning. But... this collection offers critical insights about how to strategize and struggle against it. -- Corinne Blalock, Executive Director of the Law and Political Economy Project Viewed in terms of mutation, neoliberalism can be understood as containing various genes and genres that were innocent enough at their birth, but which adapt and grow in response to history, often in malign ways. It's a valuable framing and a terrific collection of pieces, that has helped me look back on my own work and that of other neoliberalism scholars in a fresh light. -- William Davies, Goldsmiths, University of London In the debate over what neoliberalism was, whether or not it died, the question of what it morphed into has not been explored. Until now. Callison and Manfredi take up that challenge in this collection of essays by leading scholars... the essays, taken together, provide an extended examination of the possible mutations of neoliberalism that scholars will explore in their future work. * Choice * This is the book we need today. The authors refuse to debate about what liberalism 'is' and instead take us into the thicket of its fracturing and multiple futures in the wake of the great financial crisis. -- Elizabeth Povinelli, Columbia University Neoliberalism has frequently been pronounced dead in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, but the beast lives on. This collection is a strong addition to recent studies of the topic, exploring neoliberalism's relationships with the EU, the far right, populism, and gender. -- Doug Henwood, Producer of Behind the News Read more...
