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
