The authors interrogate the condition of the neoliberal project in the wake of the global crisis and neoliberalism's predicted death in 2007, both in terms of the regulatory structures of finance-led capitalism in Europe and North America, and the impact of new centres of capitalist power on global order.

The recent crisis has presented an opportunity to accelerate and deepen neoliberal restructuring. This book traces the impact of the crisis on the regulation of (finance) capital in the OECD world
