Includes bibliographical references and index.

Globalization and Capitalism Unleashed: The Travails of Labour -- The Commanding State: The Politics of Competitiveness -- The Self-Effacing State: Private Services Required -- The Self-Deceiving State: The Model Employer Myth -- New Ways or the Abject State -- The End of Things: The Great Financial Crisis -- Strange Days.

A study of contemporary Britain as a capitalism poised between American and European models, this innovative book begins with a bold re-interpretation of the economic contexts and bequests of Thatcherism that takes up the 'shock' hypothesis of Naomi Klein and roots it in an alternative economic history, and finishes with a critical assessment of the New Labour project. Pursuing the state inits various policy guises - including its attitudes towards transnational corporations, the public-private interface and gendered employment structures and equalities - itexplores themes of legitimation, denial and opportunism via a series of original studies of comparative policy importance cappedby a commentary on the early impact of the first great crisis of the 21st century. Building upon a range of recent contributions to both the 'varieties ofcapitalism' and 'third way' debates, the caseis made for a globally and historically aware approach that treats the state as a key actor.
