Reviews

One of the world's leading sociologists, Christian Joppke, has written a compelling intellectual account of the slippery and evasive ideology of neoliberalism. In a superbly researched and richly comparative volume focusing on ideas and ideologies, Joppke distils a core set of principles to define and analyse how neoliberalism spreads into politics and with what effects. Consistently engaged with political debates and intellectual arguments, Political Neoliberalism is an urgent book for a world in which geopolitics and domestic electoral politics are shifting profoundly and swiftly. * Desmond King,, Andrew W. Mellon Statutory Professor of American Government, University of Oxford *
