The free-market ideological project known, mostly by critics, as \u201cneoliberalism\u201d has been declared dead before. But once again, prominent commentators are reading the last rites. There is no shortage of indications: Trump\u2019s tariffs and the return of protectionism, repudiations of globalism, \u201cthe China model,\u201d resurgent nationalisms, so-called state capitalism, and a host of other morbid symptoms. Did late neoliberalism just pass into post-neoliberalism? Maybe it is finally time to consign this generally unloved idea, and the associated bundle of policies, projects, and governing principles, to the dustbin of history? Some continue to say that it is still too early to tell. But with neoliberalism once again at death\u2019s door, maybe we are now in a position to make sense of how it lived\u2014as a hegemonic project and strong discourse, as a program never willing to speak its own name, and as one of the most divisive concepts in the social sciences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
