This Is Neoliberalism ▶︎ Hayek and the Mont Pelerin Society I: 1918 - 1939 (Part 3)

If you've ever wanted to understand what neoliberalism is, this is the series for you.

The story of neoliberalism is a story about the power of ideas. Embedded liberalism was in power, but it was not without resistance. Academics and businessmen who opposed the New Deal and British social democracy were only begrudgingly accepting of the situation at best, or on the warpath against government intervention in the economy at worst. These two factions allied with one another to create an idea so powerful that it would covertly undo their losses to embedded liberalism by supplanting it entirely. This is where the story of neoliberalism begins.
