El neoliberalismo es la ideología dominante de nuestro tiempo. Nos moldea de innumerables maneras pero a la mayoría de nosotros nos cuesta articular lo que es. Peor aún, nos han persuadido a aceptar este credo extremo como una especie de ley natural. En ‘La doctrina invisible’, el periodista George Monbiot y el cineasta Peter Hutchison destruyen este mito.
