The Rise of Neoliberalism

Communication requires understanding the audience.

I view the "conservatives" in the U.S. as an uneasy alliance of the majority  Neoliberals, with a mix of Producerists and Dominionists . Neoliberalism is a strong element in Democratic and Independent self identified groups also in the U.S. So i was glade to see a history published on the development of Neoliberalism in the U.S. and Great Britain.
Masters of the Universe: Hayek, Friedman, and the Birth of Neoliberal Politics. By Daniel Stedman Jones. Princeton University Press; 418 pages.
