Neoliberalism is back!

Two new texts seem to bring Neoliberalism back on the academic debate, something that is very welcome, taking into account the current obsession on globalisation issues: A Brief History of Neoliberalism, the last book of David Harvey, the author of The New Imperialism and The Condition of Postmodernity; and Neoliberalism, A Critical Reader, edited by Alfredo Saad-Filho and Deborah Johnston from the renowned School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. Both texts are very committed to restored capitalism and its current regulatory expression, Neoliberalism, on the centre of the critical scrutiny.
