Neoliberalism: Its Rise and Fall?
from The History Onion Hosted by Conor Smyth and Aidan Smyth
In this episode, we discuss the neoliberal order, its rise and whether it has fallen. Our discussion is geared towards understanding the present moment and whether it represents a break with neoliberalism. However, to ground our analysis, we take a long detour through the history of neoliberalism, with a focus on a seminal neoliberal figure: Milton Friedman.
