Neoliberalism is a term that has been widely used in academic, political, and economic discussions, yet its exact definition often varies depending on the context. Broadly, neoliberalism refers to a set of economic and political policies that emphasize the role of free markets in achieving economic prosperity, social well-being, and individual freedom. At its core, neoliberalism promotes the idea that markets should operate with minimal interference from the state, and that individuals should be free to pursue their economic interests without governmental restrictions.

The roots of neoliberalism can be traced back to the early 20th century, particularly to the ideas of economists such as Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman. These thinkers were critical of state intervention in the economy and argued that government control of markets often led to inefficiency and loss of individual freedoms. Hayek’s influential work, The Road to Serfdom (1944), warned against the dangers of central planning and collectivism, which he believed could lead to authoritarianism. Similarly, Friedman, through his advocacy for monetarism and the reduction of government spending, pushed for policies that emphasized the importance of individual choice and market forces over state control. Their ideas laid the intellectual foundation for what would later become neoliberalism.

Neoliberalism as a political and economic force began to take shape during the 1970s as many Western economies faced economic stagnation and rising inflation, often referred to as stagflation. Traditional Keynesian approaches, which advocated for government intervention to manage demand and stabilize economies, appeared to fail in addressing these new challenges. In response, neoliberal ideas gained traction, especially in the United States and the United Kingdom.
