And why, despite the crash, does neoliberalism continue to dominate the world economy. \u003ci\u003eNeoliberalism and Everyday Life\u003c\/i\u003e provides answers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIlluminating the ways in which neoliberal policies - such as the deregulation of economies and the transfer of governmental responsibilities to the private sector - have been implemented on a global scale, the contributors show how neoliberalism has seeped into our social and political fabric and affected our daily lives. Drawing attention to the most visible elements of neoliberalism in business, government, and personal life, reveal the ways in which policies designed to ensure market expansion also inevitably expand social inequalities of gender, race, class, and ability. Using a variety of methods, contributors discuss a range of topics, including globalization, privatization, health care, and the welfare state. An intelligent and informative collection that explains and challenges neoliberal policies, \u003ci\u003eNeoliberalism and Everyday Life \u003c\/i\u003eis an important assessment of a political system that makes profit easier and people's lives more difficult.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSusan Braedley is a postdoctoral fellow with the Canadian Health Services Research Foundation and Canadian Institutes of Health Research Chair of Health Services Research at York University.
