P. W. Preston

England After the Great Recession

Tracking the Political and Cultural Consequences of the Crisis

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

An exploration of the recent financial crisis which argues that the hitherto dominant intellectual and policy paradigm of neo-liberalism has been fatally weakened and will in due course be replaced. The implications of the crisis for politico-cultural identities and our sense of ourselves as members of an ordered society are explored.
