Description
In the last 30 years, neoliberal policies have been implemented in almost every society on the globe, resulting in fairly specifi c neoliberal confi gurations. This volume has been compiled in time for the World Social Forum in January 2009 in Belém in order to initiate a new debate. It off ers various responses to the negative impacts of neoliberalism and its growing inability to deal with the upcoming contradictions and crises. The contributors are mainly scholar-activists from diff erent parts of the world, who present perspectives on social, political and/or economic transformations. They deal with shifting terrains of social struggles and compromises, taking place on diff erent scales, in various contexts and by diff erent actors. All postneoliberal approaches have in common that they constitute a rupture with specifi c aspects of neoliberalism . The contributors explore diff erent aspects of a possible postneoliberalism, focusing on continuities and discontinuities, which vary in depth, complexity and scope, and relate to everyday practices as well as comprehensive concepts. - from Amzon
