The Neoliberal Tide II: An Unrelenting Quest for Wealth Accumulation

By Alvaro J. de Regil

This essay completes the analysis of the neoliberal assault by discussing two fundamental assault actions perpetrated by Neoliberalism: the privatization of the economy, which has succeeded, and the complete liberalization of investment rights, which has largely failed. The author also discusses the dire situation of Russia, to illustrate the predatory nature of untrammelled Capitalism, and the reaction that Civil Society is showing to contain this assault on true freedom. The author opens by commenting on the central focus of the essay.
