Ireland: neo-liberalism's triumph

category international | anti-capitalism | other press author Tuesday January 15, 2008 22:28author by Cathal Lalor Report this post to the editors

The Wall Street Journal and the Heritage Foundation today released their so-called 'Index of Economic Freedom' for 2008. This index ranks countries according to how their institutions and policies facilitate the power of capital. Ireland is third, beaten only by the dictatorships of Hong Kong and Singapore. The dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and its rationalizing ideology,-neo-liberal economics-, has triumphed in Ireland. The developing societal breakdown is a measure of its success.
The other side of the coin is the dismal failure of the left.
