“Neoliberalism: State, Society, Market” – Lectures by Hesam Salamat
Neoliberalism is often used as a slur or term of abuse, devoid of any clear meaning. The course “Neoliberalism: State, Society, Market,” taught by Hesam Salamat, examines its theoretical formulation, history, and its relationship with democracy and Iran.
When we talk about neoliberalism, what exactly are we talking about? For a long time now, neoliberalism has become a refrain in political discussions and economic debates, not only in Iran but on a global scale. Nevertheless, few people know what this concept actually means. Neoliberalism has, unfortunately, suffered the fate of concepts that, in the everyday language of ideological disputes, are reduced to a stigma or, worse, a handy insult, and precisely for this reason convey no specific meaning. That said, the aim of the course “Neoliberalism: State, Society, Market,” held in the spring of 2017 at the “Iranian Sociological Association,” was to provide an introduction to the theoretical formulation and conceptual clarification of neoliberalism and to outline its thematic scope and theoretical coordinates as far as possible.
