NeoLiberation: Cultural Logics of Reconstruction
Editors: Randel D. Hanson and Torin Monahan
Arizona State University

Seeking interdisciplinary/theoretical essays for collected volume addressing ramifications of neoliberalism within specific cultural, geographical and/or institutional settings in contemporary societies. We understand neoliberalism as a creatively destructive and reconstructive cultural formation representing a politics based on market forces, minimal government as it concerns 'citizen wages', consumerism and an ostensible freedom of choice; on the other hand, neoliberalism calls for more intrusive government, an assertive foreign policy, and greater levels of officially sanctioned discipline in the service of social control. These two seemingly opposite positions are less contradictory than they are complementary, and this project invites inquiry into the social worlds emerging from their overlap. Submission Deadline: December 1, 2004.
