The Rise of Neoliberalism in the World

neoliberalism but I would argue that you know neoliberalism was never really a dominant political or cultural approach in the countries of the global south. In oil exporting countries none of these countries ever privatized their oil companies they did not renounce to the taxes that came from extracting oil maybe the only country that did was Russia after the Soviet Union and as we've seen today it was a relatively short process only of the 1980s. The rise of neoliberalism in the in the west if you will symbolized by torture in the UK and what it did to the other sector in the UK went never in parallel with a similar rise of neoliberalism in oil exporting countries.
