Based on archival research and interviews with leading
participants in the movement, "Masters of the Universe "traces the
ascendancy of neoliberalism from the academy of interwar Europe to
supremacy under Reagan and Thatcher and in the decades since.
Daniel Stedman Jones argues that there was nothing inevitable about
the victory of free-market politics. Far from being the story of
the simple triumph of right-wing ideas, the neoliberal breakthrough
was contingent on the economic crises of the 1970s and the
acceptance of the need for new policies by the political left. This
edition includes a new foreword in which the author addresses the
relationship between intellectual history and the history of
politics and policy.
Fascinating, important, and timely, this is a book for anyone
who wants to understand the history behind the Anglo-American love
affair with the free market, as well as the origins of the current
economic crisis.
