This is a list of my papers on different aspects of neoliberalism. Neoliberalism is not just an ideology. More importantly it is a powerful agenda of social transformation, driven by the interests of re-shaped ruling classes, and often supported by far-from-rich social groups who are now dependent on privatisations and the corporate economy. The pursuit of this agenda is generating a more unequal, more competitive and more hostile society, as well as dangerous environmental effects. I trace effects in areas of social life such as education, gender relations and the family, as well as corporate management. In research with my colleague Nour Dados, I emphasise the shifts in world trade and the distinctive course of neoliberalism in the global South.
