An investigation of the roots of the alliance between free-market neoliberals and social conservatives.
This book examines rising inequality in Anglo-capitalist societies, attributing it to the emergence of an asset economy where asset ownership surpasses employment in determining class status. It explores generational impacts, wealth disparities, urban property inflation, and the disconnect between public expectations and policy priorities.
Focusing on the period from 1970s onwards, this is a study of the relationship between politics, economics, science, and cultural values in the United States. It demonstrates that the history of biotechnology cannot be understood without taking into account the simultaneous rise of neo-liberalism as a political force and an economic policy.
"This book seeks to explain the combination of austerity and extravagance that characterizes government spending and central bank monetary policy in our times"--
