whats in a label ???
well the target of radical critique in poli econ con
has been neo liberalism for what ??
20 years now
the washington consensus rubinomics etc etc
at its core unlike the prior king hell mind set
samuelson named neoclassical synthesis
at the core of neoliberalism is a reaction to a reaction
the friedman to lucas battery of critiques of the
utterly hegemonic
( though at times only tacit but always present behind the curtain )
post war activist positivist NCS macro management "school"
witrh the total smash up of the stalinoid frankenstein production platform in the late 80's
the new school arose to unite the younger generations of american macronauts and developmennt "theorists"
it was LDM
new keynesianism and patch work minimalism
leveraging as the dummy hand version of state action
with in often tiny top layers of corporate and foundation "equity" players calling the strategic
as well as the tactical shots
if 89 might be used to mark the moment of triumph that arched over the blooming of neo liberalism
to go along with 79 and 49 perhaps as prior pivots and 09 as the post pivot
post pivot ??
we're in a new era ??
yup
a rise of anti dogmatic clamour
a cacophonic eclectic chorus
