{"product_id":"neoliberalism-economic-radicalism-and-the-vicente-berdayes-9783319797441","title":"Neoliberalism, Economic Radicalism, and the Normalization of Violence","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis compelling volume analyzes the wide-scale societal impact of neoliberal economic policy on contemporary life and behavior. Synthesizing perspectives from politics and economics with insights from psychology and linguistics, it argues that market-driven public institutions promote antisocial thinking, discourage critical reflection, and inure individuals to inequity and cruelty. Chapters cite the ubiquity of violence in modern society, from the marketing of the military to impersonal mass upheavals in the job market, as devaluing human worth and thus self-worth. But the editors also assert that these currents are not terminal, and the book concludes by identifying conditions potentially leading to a more civil and egalitarian future.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIncluded in the coverage: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe language of current economics: social theory, the market, and the disappearance of relationships.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeoliberalism and education: the disfiguration of students.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSlicing up societies: commercial media and the destruction of social environments.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeoliberalism and the transformation of work.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEconomics, the network society, and the ontology of violence.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA new economic order without violence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGiven the centrality of economic events on the global stage, \u003ci\u003e Neoliberalism, Economic Radicalism, and the Normalization of Violence\u003c\/i\u003e stands out as botha springboard for discussion and a call to action, to be read by political and cultural economists, political scientists, and sociologists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vicente Berdayes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3319797441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783319797441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/28\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.40d","brand":"Vicente Berdayes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48996291084543,"sku":"9783319797441","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/neoliberalism-economic-radicalism-and-the-vicente-berdayes-9783319797441","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
