The paper points to the key topics that emerge from the papers in the special issue. It argues that neoliberalism is not a mere ideology but a project for a market-centered society. Its neglect of the social costs arising from low growth and unequal distribution and its disregard for democracy are the outcome of such a project. Consequently, an alternative to neoliberalism requires an assessment of the overall project rather than a mere critique of its theoretical foundations.

Abstract
The paper points to the key topics that emerge from the papers in the special issue. It argues that neoliberalism is not a mere ideology but a project for a market-centered society. Its neglect of the social costs arising from low growth and unequal distribution and its disregard for democracy are the outcome of such a project. Consequently, an alternative to neoliberalism requires an assessment of the overall project rather than a mere critique of its theoretical foundations.File in questo prodotto:
