Media Reviews
Empirically, the book appropriately moves away from the 'first generation' centers of neoliberalism, focusing on peripheries within the global north as well as 'second generation' adopters of neoliberalism in the global south and specifically how neoliberalism has been variously implemented as contingent, mutable and contextually specific neoliberalizations. England and Ward should take great pride in knowing that they have produced an indispensable volume of essential consideration to future studies of neoliberalism/neoliberalization.
