Neoliberalism has had a major impact on public policy but it has
also perhaps obscured the equally dramatic spread of other policy
tools based on significantly different forms of social science.
This book therefore explores the mixture of social technologies
that have arisen since neoliberalism, sometimes alongside and
sometimes in conflict with it, but generally as attempts to address
problems created by the market reforms of a high neoliberalism.
These have included attempts to spread networks, joining-up, and
long term partnerships, and to build state capacity, social
capital, and resilient communities. Thematically, each chapter is
defined by its engagement with governmentality, specifically
challenging governmentality theory to pay more attention to
practices. The book also develops a complex and variegated account
of neoliberalism and its afterlife as chapters highlight the
different ways in which a range of market mechanisms and other
technologies now coexist in different policy areas. Finally, the
book moves beyond abstract discussions of both governmentality and
neoliberalism to concrete demonstrations of this approach in
action. This text will be of key interest to scholars and students
of governance, public policy, governmentality theory and more
broadly to British Politics, social policy, and sociology.
