An Immodest Rejoinder: Illiberalism and Postliberalism, But Still Neoliberalism

Michael Scroggins

Economic Anthropology, 2026, vol. 13, issue 1

Abstract: This article responds to the claims of Beck and High that the age of neoliberalism has passed and a new age of illiberalism is upon us. Against Beck and High, I argue that illiberalism is not opposed to neoliberalism, but rather accelerates it. In closing, I offer several practical strategies for navigating (thriving, even) in this illiberal, but still neoliberal, political moment.
