✦ Synopsis

This book explores the connections between neoliberalism, social justice and exclusion. The authors offer grounded, theoretically-oriented, empirically-rich analysis of the links between neoliberalism and social justice, bringing together work that critiques neoliberalism, along with understandings of its material impacts. It also stresses the need to extend analysis beyond the dominant spheres of "capitalism," to explore the ways in which communities resist and remake capitalism, through processes of contestation and protest, but also through their everyday lives, their economies and their livelihood strategies. Global in scope, each chapter in turn asks how the experiences of marginal peoples, places and communities might challenge our conceptions of capitalism and its geographies.
