Book review: The long crisis:New York City and the path to neoliberalism by Benjamin Holtzman

In The Long Crisis: New York City and the Path to Neoliberalism, Benjamin Holtzman makes an in-depth examination of the 50 year shift to neoliberal governance in America’s biggest city. Glyn Robbins writes that the book’s detailed and balanced discussion of how the city came to embrace private sector solutions to public policy problems is still relevant to today, and to many cities across the globe.
