A superb book . . . [Duggan] reveals just how much the far-reaching neoliberal revolution has been advanced, at every step of the way, through insidious appeals to race, gender, and sexuality.–Andrew Ross, author of The Celebration Chronicles < br>
Brilliantly bold and coherent. [Duggan] rebuts the puritanical and the implicit, and makes a potent case for various hues of the unrepresented or underrepresented in American politics.”–Akinbola E. Akinwumi, Politicalaffairs.net
“Duggan’s well-reasoned argument is that true progressive change must occur not in parts but as a unified whole.”–Publishers Weekly

“Lisa Duggan’s insightful, carefully argued, and passionate book finally makes sense of neo-liberals’ rise to power in the 1990s . . .
