Description

Based on in-depth research in Poland and Slovakia, Domesticating
Neo-Liberalism addresses how we understand the processes of
neo-liberalization in post-socialist cities.

* Builds upon a vast amount of new research data

* Examines how households try to sustain their livelihoods at
particularly dramatic and difficult times of urban
transformation

* Provides a major contribution to how we theorize the
geographies of neo-liberalism

* Offers a conclusion which informs discussions of social policy
within European Union enlargement
