This upcoming book in the Neoliberalism series, written by Renaldo McKenzie, delves into the concept of wealth and its distribution, challenging the notion that hard work and savings lead to prosperity. Renaldo argues in Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered, Neo-Capitalism and the Death of Nations that certain groups and regions, particularly Black and Brown people in the Global South and Global North, have been denied access to wealth due to historical exploitation and systems that devalue their labor. The book highlights the impact of neoliberalism, a privileged economic philosophy which perpetuates the transfer of decision-making power away from working-class individuals and communities.

Old Cover Concept

The upcoming book, co-authored and prefaced by Professor Emeritus, Dr. Martin Oppenheimer, takes an academic and interdisciplinary approach, focusing on Pan-African and Caribbean thought. It builds upon the previous work on neoliberalism but expands its scope to explore the importance of cinema, globalization, and the position of Black and Brown people in the world. The author revisits Marxism and Capitalism, analyzing how systems are changing and whose interests they serve. Resistance and the fight for change are also examined, alongside the potential of digital technology to challenge violence and discrimination. The book aims to provide deeper insights into the struggle for independence and true freedom.

 

Neoliberalism 1st Edition

In “Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered,” the prevailing motif of the Caribbean as a paradise is questioned, emphasizing its dependence and vulnerability as states detached from their people. This is a continuation of the considerations in Neoliberalism book 1 entitled, Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality, Poverty and Resistance. The realities of the Global South and the black position in the world are explored, considering the historical strategies of the dominant class to attain supernormal profit through neo-capitalistic systems. The book critically examines the socio-economic history and current dynamics of the global north and south, questioning the efficacy of resistance and Pan-African integration. The changing power dynamics of the neoliberal globalized world are analyzed, and opportunities for future transformation are discussed.

The book also addresses the issue of power and privilege, highlighting how former colonial masters shape the independence of former colonies to maintain their dominance. The driving forces behind neoliberal globalization, neo-capitalism, and pseudo-communism are explored, revealing the hegemony of the master through international organizations such as the WTO and the World Bank. The book references specific examples like Ukraine, Haiti, Cuba, and Taiwan to illustrate the suppression of new nations and the realization of their own visions.

From Artificial Intelligence that opines the end of life transforming the dialectic of whether we live to work or work to live, and the value of a society based on work and any corresponding value from that which allows the dynamics of life based in privilege. To question who really rules the world? US, UN or China and Russia and their strategic alliance and interference in a world driven by greed and nepotism which China has spared no time capitalizing on as they use this knowledge strategically to their advantage to direct American policy through their corporations driven by their bottom line. Ending with a Reimagination of Peoples within Critical Race Theory, Not thinking Race, but moving away from a Victim Approach to a Hero Approach.

Overall, Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered, seeks to challenge prevailing narratives and explore the complex realities of wealth, power, and independence in a global context. It aims to provide a critical analysis of the socio-economic dynamics that shape the lives of people in the global north, the global south, and the black and brown communities.
