<p><strong>'This interdisciplinary collection of essays does indeed rethink neoliberalism. Through an interrogation of ideologies, policies and practices, the contributors challenge not only neoliberalism itself but also established forms of academic and activist critique. At a time when developing progressive political alternatives is ever more imperative, the thought provoking contributions to this book are essential reading.'</strong> <em>-Wendy Larner, Provost and Professor of Human Geography, Victoria University of Wellington, Aotearoa/New Zealand</em></p>

Attentive to the varying grounds and effects of neoliberalism in social policy, subject formation, and everyday life, the essays in this volume offer timely and original insights into issues such as policing, neoliberal urbanism, "commanded individuality," and "critical counter-conduct" that recognize the stickiness and instability of neoliberalism and the possibilities for its undermining in multiple heres and nows.' <i>– Cindi Katz, Professor of Geography in Environmental Psychology and Women’s Studies, City University of New York, Graduate Center, USA</i></p>
