A Brief History of Neoliberalism offers a critical analysis of the rise and impact of neoliberal economic policies globally. David Harvey traces the origins of neoliberalism to the economic crises of the 1970s and examines how it became the dominant economic paradigm, influencing policies in countries like the United States and the United Kingdom.
Harvey argues that neoliberalism has led to increased social inequality and the concentration of wealth and power. He explores the role of institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in promoting neoliberal policies, often at the expense of social welfare and equity.
The book is structured to provide both historical context and critical analysis, making it accessible to readers interested in economics, political science, and global studies.
