Alternative economies

The relationship between neoliberal governance, globalization, and capitalist development continues to be a dominant focus in contemporary economic geography. This scholarship variously conceives of neoliberal capitalism as a singular force or as a term that describes the variegated connections between capitalism and an enabling state and society. Much of this scholarship charts how neoliberal capitalism has emerged over the past half-century through processes that govern economies the privatization of state assets, economic deregulation, technologically assisted internationalization, fnancialization, and so forth. These processes are linked to the gradual expansion of a neoliberal governmentality, the way that institutions and individuals alike internalize its competitive spirit and metrological culture.
