‘Debate: What Comes After Neoliberalism’

‘What comes after neoliberalism? This is in many ways the question of our time. Or maybe neoliberalism doesn’t really exist at all? And if it does, what is the relevance for lawyers, legal scholarship and legal practice?’ This symposium discusses Poul F Kjaer’s edited volume The Law of Political Economy: Transformation in the Function of Law (CUP 2020) while also going a step further by instigating a discussion on the impact and consequences of neoliberal thinking on law and legal scholarship while also seeking to carve a new path through the development of alternatives to the neoliberal paradigm.
