"In this book, Lars Cornelissen argues that starting from its emergence in the interwar period, neoliberalism has rested conceptually and politically on a Eurocentric vision that portrays Western culture as the epitome of civilizational progress. Race and Neoliberalism situates this political economic philosophy against the backdrop of two key historical developments following the Second World War: the broad shift in Western attitudes toward the concept of race and the end of Empire. It traces how neoliberal thinkers assessed these developments and adjusted their thinking to it, searching for subtler and more coded ways to conceptualize race and structure their Eurocentric worldview. Over five chapters dealing with thinkers such as Friedrich Hayek, Ludwig von Mises, Thomas Sowell, Charles Murray, and others from 1910 to the present, Cornelissen examines how neoliberal thinkers have used racial constructs to conceptualize world history, underdevelopment, colonial history, material inequality, and intelligence. Situating neoliberal thinkers in relation to key moments and debates of twentieth century racial discourse - from decolonization at mid-century to The Bell Curve to the current resurgence of xenophobia and the far right - Cornelissen shows that neoliberals were not just the passive recipients of racial discourse, but actively impacted it"--
