The Global Life of Austerity : Comparing Beyond Europe, Paperback / softback Book

The Global Life of Austerity : Comparing Beyond Europe Paperback / softback

Edited by Theodoros Rakopoulos

Part of the Critical Interventions: A Forum for Social Analysis series

Paperback / softback

Description

Austerity and structural adjustment programs are just the latest forms of neoliberal policy to have a profoundly damaging impact on the targeted populations.

Yet, as the contributors to this collection argue, the recent austerity-related European crisis is not a breach of erstwhile development schemes, but a continuation of economic policies.

Using historical analysis and ethnographically-grounded research, this volume shows the similarities of the European conundrum with realities outside Europe, seeing austerity in a non-Eurocentric fashion.

In doing so, it offers novel insights as to how economic crises are experienced at a global level.
