TRANSCRIPT

Whilst in some circles neoliberalism

may be a familiar term, Google

Trends, and cartoons like the one of

Former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd

(Image 1), infer that Australians

(and Americans and British) are

more interested in communism and

socialism, than with neoliberalism,

and may in fact, not really know

what neoliberalism is.

Google Trends - Australia

Google Trends - Worldwide

It is difficult to know what causes the lack of interest, but perhaps it is linked to the lack of understanding so well demonstrated by First Dog on the Moon who notes here that “nobody really understands it”.
