About this book

This collection brings together a diverse range of analyses to interrogate policy changes and to grapple with the on-going transformations of neoliberalism in both North America and various Latin American states.

Reviews

'[A] provocative edited volume, which will appeal to academic audiences but also to the informed reader...Perhaps the most innovative feature of the collection is its geographic reach, encompassing Canada and the US as well as Latin America, and combining comparative thematic chapters with country case studies.' - Times Higher Education
