The gravity of the situation is matched by a general paucity of understanding as to precisely what is happening and how it started. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this new edition of a highly acclaimed book, Wolfgang Streeck revisits his recent arguments in the light of Brexit and the continued crisis of the EU. These developments are only the latest events in the long neoliberal transformation of postwar capitalism that began in the 1970s, a process that turned states away from tax toward debt as a source of revenue, and from that point into the 'consolidation state' of today. Central to this analysis is the changing relationship between capitalism and democracy--in Europe and elsewhere--and the advancing immunization of the former against the latter.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWolfgang Streeck\u003c\/b\u003e is Director Emeritus at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies in Cologne.
