Provides a thorough chronological review and analysis of neoliberal thought, from the 1920s through to the modern day.
With an in-depth look at the two main economic philosophies of our time, ordoliberalism and neoliberalism, Alfonso Zurita helps readers understand how economic crises, along with the political changes that followed, have emerged across the world over the last century. Following a detailed chronological account of these two economic theories, the book moves into analyzing how the ordoliberal and neoliberal economic movements have shaped today's economic thinking, including their role in shaping global markets and regulatory structures. Covering everything from the academic revolution in early 20th-century Europe to the current rise of cryptocurrency and decentralization's effect on governments worldwide, this book is a vital resource for anyone interested in the study of political economy.
