Sinopse

Neoliberalism is the path to prosperity for all, yes? Or maybe not. Few philosophies have had a more profound effect on our current world. Yet it is now crumbling, and what it morphs into remains to be seen. Professor John Quiggin is the author of a chapter on neoliberalism in this Springer book. His book Zombie Economics: How Dead Ideas Still Walk among Us sold over 20,000 copies and was translated into eight languages. His latest book is Economics in Two Lessons: Why Markets Work So Well, and Why They Can Fail So Badly. John Quiggin is UQ Laureate Fellow at the School of Economics, University of Queensland. Interview by Rod who is co-editor of the Springer book.
