An original study of neoliberalism as a state model: a power structure configured to implement radical policy proposals.

Recenzje

'This book is the best and most comprehensive investigation of the neoliberal state in Latin America. Its all-original essays show that neoliberalism hardly entailed the termination of state intervention. Rather, the neoliberal state used government planning, concentrated power, and technocratic isolation to liberalize trade and finance in support of export-led growth.' James Mahoney, Gordon Fulcher Professor in Decision-Making and Professor of Sociology and Political Science at Northwestern University
