What is new about neoliberalism?Pierre Dardotand Christian Laval contendthat it is more than just a neweconomic paradigm it is asystem for transforming thehuman subject. Rather thana return to classic liberalism,or the restoration of a pure,unconstrained market,neoliberalism envisages themodern corporation as amodel for government,conjuring a future in whichsociety is nothing other thana web of market-basedrelations.

Cutting through contemporarymisunderstandingsabout its genesis andprevalence, Dardot andLaval distil neoliberalismto its core meaning andexamine how it might bechallenged on new politicaland intellectual terms.
