This book is about the anatomy of neoliberalism and education from
a Marxist perspective. It is the dialectical materialism of
neoliberal ideas, examining the material conditions of how these
ideas and practices emerged, and under what conditions. Each of
these elements is related to the other and can only be properly
understood as part and parcel of the whole system of capitalism,
which links them together. This book investigates neoliberalism's
political, cultural, and financial tools. It goes deep in the
forces who have supported neoliberalism and how it became ""common
sense"". It explores the imperialist outcomes and the social
devastation it created. It then goes to see how these ideas and
policies have been implemented in education. In short, it is the
materialist conception of the history of the American empire. It
then uses the analytic tools developed through this investigation
to re-read the neoliberal educational reforms.
