The Solidarity Economy: Disha Karnad Jani Interviews Tehila Sasson

Disha Karnad Jani interviews Tehila Sasson, Assistant Professor of Britain and the World in the Department of History at Emory University. In this interview, the author discusses her new book The Solidarity Economy: Nonprofits and the Making of Neoliberalism after Empire (Princeton University Press, 2024). Sasson shows how British nonprofits sought to create an ethical capitalism in the decades immediately after the Second World War and traces how many of the core concepts and practices of neoliberalism grew out of experiments from the left-liberal nonprofit sector in the era of decolonization.
