'Is neoloberalism on its last legs?' is just not an interesting question for someone who has been exhausted by a torrent of dense prose testing the elasticity of that phrase for two decades.
I do find it interesting that clever people with a correspondingly large opportunity cost of time are happy to spend their finite lives doing battle on the topic.
Has covid signed the death knell of neoliberalism? Who cares. What an awful question. Has the great financial crisis discredited neoliberalism? Zzzzzzz.
Ask whether covid will go, or affect us forever. Or whether we will have multiple pandemics. Whether it means more public or private healthcare. More health capacity, or just the same.
Ask how it will affect redistributive polices. Whether infringements on civil liberties will be permanently eroded, or just contingent on there being no pandemic.
