Western Neoliberalism Is A Predatory Outgrowth Of Late Capitalism That Overvalues Competition, Transferring The Laws Of The Market To Human Relationships. This Book Advances The Argument That Anti-neoliberal Cinemas Of Europe, The United States, And The Russian Federation Imagine And Visualize Alternatives To The Non-sovereign Realities Of A Neoliberal Workplace That Unequivocally Endorses Dangerous Risk-taking, Self-optimizing Neoliberal Subjects, And Corporate 'entrepreneurs Of Self.' Always At Stake In The Examination Of Neoliberalisms Consequences Is A Human Being Who Is Indexed By Race, Gender, Nation, Ability, And Economic Performance. Drawing On Film Theory, Transnational Social Histories, Critical Race Theory, And Marxist And Foucauldian Interpretive Models, This Book Rediscovers A Cinema That Imagines A Social Contract Focused On The Common Good And Ethical Standards For The Social State.
