Thanks to the rise of neoliberalism over the past several decades,
we live in an era of rampant anxiety, insecurity, and inequality.
While neoliberalism has become somewhat of an academic buzzword in
recent years, this book offers a rich and multilayered introduction
to what is arguably the most pressing issue of our times. Engaging
with prominent scholarship in media and cultural studies, as well
as geography, sociology, economic history, and political theory,
author Julie Wilson pushes against easy understandings of
neoliberalism as market fundamentalism, rampant consumerism, and/or
hyper-individualism. Instead, Wilson invites readers to interrogate
neoliberalism in true cultural studies fashion, at once as history,
theory, practice, policy, culture, identity, politics, and lived
experience. Indeed, the book's primary aim is to introduce
neoliberalism in all of its social complexity, so that readers can
see how neoliberalism shapes their own lives, as well as our
political horizons, and thereby start to imagine and build
alternative worlds.
