Has neoliberalism failed? Reflections on Western society | LSE Event

We apologise for a short pause in the audio recording. Join us for a public lecture by Samuel Gregg as he explores the question of whether neoliberalism has failed. In this timely event, Dr Gregg will delve into the origins of the term "neoliberalism" and its contested usefulness in today's discourse. He will critically examine claims by prominent scholars like Francis Fukuyama, who argue that neoliberal policies have exacerbated inequality, fueled populism, and contributed to a host of socio-economic challenges in the West. Dr Gregg will also evaluate whether intellectuals such as F.A. Hayek and Milton Friedman fit the 'neoliberal' label and will provide insights on the current state of Western society, with particular attention to the implications of the US presidential election. This lecture offers a crucial opportunity to reflect on the future of liberal democracy, the role of "neoliberalism" in it and its impact on contemporary politics and society.
