125: The Devolution of Neoliberalism – UTS Finance Department Roundtable
In this special edition of the [i3] Podcast, in collaboration with the UTS Finance Department, we explore how the neoliberal model of economics, which largely ignored politics and focused on financial metrics, has eroded over time and made way for the rise of populism, which has exerted its influence on economies around the world. Why did the guardrails that neoliberalism provided slowly disappear and what are the consequences of this? Is there any model that will replace it? Political Economist Elizabeth Humphrys, Geopolitical Specialist Philipp Ivanov and UTS Industry Lecturer Rob Prugue delve deep into this fascinating topic as...

Episode 41 - What Actually is Neoliberalism? An Objective Guide in 30 Minutes
Neoliberalism is a word which you may not have heard of- but its power probably affects every part of your life. Neoliberalism = liberal democracy (generally seen as good) + free market economics; but what does that really mean? What are the consequences of neoliberalism? How does it affect economies, societies, politics, and people? This is one of the single most important questions out there right now, because for voters to make a better world for themselves they need to know what ideologies they're voting for. Educating yourself on what neoliberalism is and what parties support it can make...

Postcapitalism and a World Without Work Chapter 3: The Engineered Ascendance of Neoliberalism / Why They Are Winning and What We Can Learn
Chapter 3 of Nick Srnicek and Alex Williams's "Inventing the Future," titled "Why Are They Winning? The Making of Neoliberal Hegemony," shifts the focus from critiquing the left's "folk politics" (as established in Chapter 1 and detailed in Chapter 2) to examining the strategies and historical processes that enabled neoliberalism to achieve its dominant position as a global common sense. The authors contend that neoliberalism's success was not a natural or inevitable outcome of capitalism, but rather a "political construction" born from "contingencies, struggle, concentrated action, patience and grand-scale strategic thinking".This chapter argues that, contrary to popular...

The Invisible Doctrine of Neoliberalism
On today’s show host Esty Dinur is joined by Peter Hutchinson to tackle the overwhelming and slippery topic of neoliberalism and this ideology’s impact on everyday life. Hutchinson co-authored the book Invisible Doctrine, and is the filmmaker of the documentary of the same name. He says that he and his co-author, George Monbiot, wanted to make the inception, propagation, and policies of neoliberalism accessible to more audiences. Hutchinson says that the “ugly, eerie, and soulless” aesthetic of the Invisible Doctrine film was intentional, meant to “deploy technology against capitalism.” They have gotten push...

Neoliberalism Explained, or Why You’re Tired All the Time
For many of us growing up, “Christian” was synonymous with “Republican.” It was a given that we followers of Christ supported a political party that was not only anti-abortion, but pro-free market capitalism. Even long after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the menace of godless communists and their authoritarian regimes loom large in our collective imagination. I was raised to believe in government incompetence as much as the American Dream. America was the great meritocracy, and a comfortable, middle-class life was available to anyone with the gumption to work for it. In my young life, th...

Ep105. Neoliberalism: The Ultimate Disorderer? With George Monbiot
Forget Christianity, Judaism, New Age Spirituality, and Buddhism, a new type of religion drives 21st century Western thought. It goes by the shadowy name of Neoliberalism: the commodification of everything; Markets and the private sector ascendent; The deliberate attempt to reduce – especially through privatisation and austerity – state power, regulatory capacity, and government’s ability to influence the economy. Over the past few decades, from Thatcher and Reagan, to Blair and Clinton, the whole world was incentivized to embrace neoliberal reforms. The result? Our public services are crumbling. Governments have lost the ability to build roads and hospitals. Governments are no lon...

Neoliberalism’s Plague: The Erosion of Conscience in Education
Henry Giroux joins Dick and Sharon in a conversation about neoliberalism and its impact on education. Henry believes that for decades, neoliberalism—a predatory form of capitalism—has waged a relentless war on the welfare state, dismantled the public sphere, and eroded the common good. Disguised in the rhetoric of freedom, it elevates market logic to the status of a governing ideology, insisting that every aspect of society must conform to the demands of economic activity. In practice, neoliberalism concentrates wealth in the hands of a financial elite while celebrating unrestrained self-interest, extreme individualism, deregulation, and privatization.

The ideology that pervades government and society in Canada and around the world is also facing a severe crisis and backlash – one that could give way to far-right fascist forces if progressives cannot build an alternative.From explaining inequality, to the reckoning of the left w...

The Secret History of Neoliberalism (w/ George Monbiot) | The Chris Hedges Report
Watch this interview at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=see5c5Sgi14 The current world order is designed to be complex and confusing. Its function enshrines the power of our rulers, who purposely obscure its origins and underlying philosophy. Politicians, the media, so-called intellectuals at think tanks — along with the inertia of systemic falsehoods — perpetuate this veiled system. Neoliberalism has maintained its dominance through exploiting the many to sustain the prosperity of the few. The discussion, Hedges and Monbiot make clear, extends far beyond economics and policy decisions. Neoliberalism affects every aspect of people’s lives...

Neoliberalism: The Invisible Ideology, with George Monbiot
We live under an invisible ideology. It tells us that we are not citizens but consumers. That intervening in the free market compromises our freedom. That we are all millionaires-in-waiting - and if we are struggling to make ends meet, then we only have ourselves to blame. This is capitalism on steroids. But few of us can even identify the doctrine we live under. It’s called “neoliberalism”, and it’s been the dominant economic ideology for the past four decades. So what does this ideology have to tell us about the world? How is neoliberalism shaping our democracy? And what has...

Overcoming Neoliberalism: Jared Yates Sexton
Thursday, January 26th, 2023 Jared Yates Sexton is a self-described Hoosier, a Political Analyst, and host of the Muckrake Podcast. His latest book is The Midnight Kingdom: A History of Power, Paranoia, and the Coming Crisis. We discuss our current era of neo-liberalism and what may be in store in the future. One of the most dangerous things that Reagan and Thatcher did on behalf of neoliberalism was convince people that government is impotent. This has eaten away at the authority of the state and reduced confidence in government regulation. Further, neoliberalism has...

Neoliberalism Book 2: Moving Beyond the Global South to Consider The Global North
I dedicate this book… … to my Dad, who was given a basic education up to the 9th grade, where he could and needed only to barely read, write or spell. Yet, the expectations on him were great, to become an adult, raise a family while working in an industry requiring basic education, getting base pay. But, through trial and error, raised six successful children, one of whom has written several books and completing academic studies at the highest and most prestigious levels. The cycle would continue, but some slip through the cracks, now working to make it bigg...

Aldo Madariaga on Neoliberalism, Democratic Deficits, and Chile
It's not just inequality of wealth. It is not just inequality of income, which is big. It's also inequality in terms of the geographical clustering of different strata of the population, of different people. It's inequality in life experiences. It's inequality in treatment. People felt mistreated by those in the upper echelons of society. So, it's not just money. It's also access to public goods, to certain spaces in the city, to education, unemployment benefits, and all sorts of things. But also, treatment.Aldo MadariagaA full transcript is available at www.democracyparadox.com or...

Architecture and urbanism have contributed to one of the most sweeping transformations of our times. Over the past four decades, neoliberalism has been not only a dominant paradigm in politics but a process of bricks and mortar in everyday life. Rather than to ask what a neoliberal architecture looks like, or how architecture represents neoliberalism, this volume examines the multivalent role of architecture and urbanism in geographically variable yet interconnected processes of neoliberal transformation across scales—from China, Turkey, South Africa, Argentina, Mexico, the United States, Britain, Sweden, and Czechoslovakia.

Neoliberalism in Higher Education with Professor Nathan Rousseau
What began with economic liberalism--rooted in Adam Smith’s 18th Century classic book, The Wealth of Nations--has evolved and morphed well beyond economics, first to public policy and, today, to the socio-cultural sphere. Berkeley’s Wendy Brown asserts that Neoliberalism has become a 'saturating reality principle in society.’ Much has been written about the impact of Neoliberalism on higher education, and a recent example is Professor Rousseau's article, The Sociological Imagination, Neoliberalism, and Higher Education (published in Social Currents, 2020). Today, we'll hear from Nathan, discussants Ruben Martinez and Amy Jamison, and other colleagues, as they explore this important subject. (Today...

Instead, we are witnessing the emergence of neoliberalism’s "bastards" in the form political projects that combine free-market ideas with nationalist and even racist tropes.

Neoliberalism and its discontents
“Neoliberalism” is one of the most confusing phrases in political discourse today. The term is often used to describe the market fundamentalism of thinkers like Milton Friedman and Frederich Hayek or politicians like Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. At the same time, critics often place more progressive figures like Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and even Elizabeth Warren under the neoliberal banner. This raises an important question: what the hell is neoliberalism?I decided to bring on two guests today to help us answer that question.
