Neoliberalism
Makes competition and market coordination central to economic policy, often favoring market opening, private provision, and rules that sustain exchange. The label covers several different historical projects.
Foundational doctrines
- Market coordination
- Competition
- Private enterprise
- Rules for exchange
Disagreement and variation
Institution-building versions differ from broad privatization programs; critics question whether competitive markets disperse power or entrench it. Early institutional neoliberalism differs from later privatization programs; democratic and authoritarian implementations cannot be treated as equivalent.
