for Beyond Neoliberalism and “Neo-Illiberalism†project
Beyond Neoliberalism and “Neo-illiberalismâ€: Reframing Economic Policy for Sustainable Democracy is a project of the New School for Social Research. This project will lead to the development of an alternative framework for economic policy that goes beyond neoliberalism and the wave of “neo-illiberalism.†Drawing on expertise from social science disciplines and using the best available data, both on political change and economic outcomes, this project will help to understand the economic impact of the illiberal shift in many countries and inform discussion of an alternative set of economic policies that take us beyond neoliberalism and neo-illiberalism. A deepened understanding of the relationship between politics and economics will allow for serious exploration of alternative economic policy frameworks that could strengthen democracies and help them deliver.
