In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

    Abstract

    Over the last 30 years, a hyperglobalized form of capitalism has exercised hegemonic control over the world economy. Legitimated by an ideology known as neoliberalism, the economic order has been characterized by deregulation, privatization, welfare state retrenchment, free trade, capital mobility, and attacks on organized labor. The economic turmoil of the last 2 years has shown that three decades of neoliberalism have failed to produce an economy that is not bubble-prone and that is capable of improving the living standards of most people in the world. Articulating an alternative to neoliberalism is therefore an urgent task. (Posey, 2011: 299).The market’ has become the model of social relations, exchange value the only value. Western governments have shown themselves weak and indecisive in responding to the environmental crisis, climate change and the threat to sustainable life on the planet, and have refused to address the issues in other than their own - market - terms. (Hall et al. 2013: 1)
