In this innovative book, Jonah Levy conducts an insightful investigation into economic liberalisation and articulates a progressive alternative to neoliberalism, compatible with the values and interests of leftist governments and parties. Levy identifies and expands on the vices of contemporary welfare capitalism, which have been previously targeted by progressive reformers seeking to improve the functioning of the economy while protecting the well-being of low-income and disadvantaged groups. Chapters delve into case studies from the UK, the Netherlands, Sweden and wider Europe that show progressive-liberal reforms by centre-left governments, assessing austerity budgets, tax cuts, the promotion of part-time employment and workfare. Levy provides a roadmap to guide the left’s approach to economic liberalization and to ensure these actions can be understandable to voters. Ultimately, this book demonstrates how left-leaning governments across Europe can advance liberal objectives in a more just and inclusive manner.Rethinking Economic Liberalization is an essential read for students and researchers of political science, political economy, sociology, public policy, and social welfare. Political practitioners and progressive think tanks will find the insights presented useful when navigating the challenge of economic liberalization.

‘Jonah Levy’s well-researched and superbly written Rethinking Economic Liberalization re-examines the merits of “Third Way” policy and politics round the turn of the millennium. At the time, Third-Way protagonists wrongly thought to eclipse Left and Right. Notwithstanding this naivety, progressive governments in Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the UK, made way for reform successes to inspire policymakers today wishing to overcome senseless polarization, tackle global challenges, and build a new era of opportunity, justice and prosperity.’
