Working in the UK and United States, our panellists are specialists in the histories of Britain, America and North Africa, as well as in global histories of ideas, and the international reach of Western economic and foreign policy. In doing so, the panel will identify and explore a prominent, resonant and much debated theme in historical research. ‘New Histories of Neo-Liberalism’ brings together five historians who’ve made significant recent interventions, with reference to diverse geographies, political structures, chronologies and methodologies. The early 2020s have seen new monographs, edited collections and journal articles - offering us a growing range of perspectives on this subject. Historical studies of neo-liberalism are much in evidence.
