Navigating Neoliberalism: Political Aesthetics in an Age of Crisis (Nick Srnicek) Navigating Neoliberalism3 the ensemble of society’s structures as a whole.”
In charting through a loose set of historical periods from national to imperialist to globalised capitalism, Jameson arguesthat at one time the nature of capitalism was such that one could potentially establish acorrespondence between our local phenomenological experiences and the economicstructure that determined it. We could, in other words, establish a cognitive map of oureconomic space, thereby making intelligible the world around us.
With therise of globalisation, however, Jameson claims that this is no longer the case. We can no longersimply extrapolate from our local experience and develop a map of the global economicsystem. With globalised capitalism havingbecome unbound from anyphenomenological coordinates, this possibility for a socialist politics has becomeincreasingly difficult.At the heart of the problem is that “the economy is not found as anempirical object among other worldly things[.] Jameson, Authoritarian Neoliberalism, the Occupy Movements, and IPE.

A Brief History of Neoliberalism: David Harvey. The Security Archipelago: Human-Security States, Sexuality Politics, and the End of Neoliberalism. Printer-friendly version My paper will draw upon three years of fieldwork in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and Cairo, Egypt, to map out a radically new genealogy of the “human security” paradigm, tracing it from its ancestral sexual-security paradigms and cultural-rescue campaigns. I will argue that these formations represent a coherent, transnationally transmitted complex of gendered legitimations and logics for interventionary governance that (1) deploy para-military force to rescue “trafficked” sexualities and (2) invest in cultural infrastructure to save gendered and sexualized notions of national authenticity.
These actions are seen as the new natural, humane basis for responding to “crisis” by rescuing and extending both militarized power and social justice, in ways which supposedly slip around the politicized terrains of racial identity, religious faith, and political terrorism. The Road from Mont Pèlerin - Philip Mirowski, Dieter Plehwe. What exactly is neoliberalism, and where did it come from?
This volume attempts to answer these questions by exploring neoliberalism’s origins and growth as a political and economic movement. The Strange Non-Death of NeoLiberalism. Description The financial crisis seemed to present a fundamental challenge to neo liberalism, the body of ideas that have constituted the political orthodoxy of most advanced economies in recent decades.
Colin Crouch argues in this book that it will shrug off this challenge. The reason is that while neo liberalism seems to be about free markets, in practice it is concerned with the dominance over public life of the giant corporation. This has been intensified, not checked, by the recent financial crisis and acceptance that certain financial corporations are ‘too big to fail'. Although much political debate remains preoccupied with conflicts between the market and the state, the impact of the corporation on both these is today far more important. Several factors have brought us to this situation: Both democratic politics and the free market are weakened by these processes, but they are largely inevitable and not always malign.

Depending on the balance of political power and economic advantage, some of these might be ignored, some might be dealt with by further marketization, but there will always be some that call out for non-market intervention.

The Deadly Ideas of Neoliberalism. 'The Deadly Ideas of Neoliberalism' explores the history of and current collision between two of the major global phenomena that have characterized the last 30 years: the spread of HIV/AIDS and other diseases of poverty and the ascendancy of neoliberal economic ideas.
The book explains not only how IMF policies of restrictive spending have exacerbated public health problems in developing countries, in particular the HIV/AIDS crisis, but also how such issues cannot be resolved under these economic policies. It also suggests how mounting global frustration about this inability to adequately address HIV/AIDS will ultimately lead to challenges to the dominant neoliberal ideas, as other more effective economic ideas for increasing public spending are sought.
