DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Philipp Ther\nhosted by Thomas Henzinger\nAbstract: Th
 e year 1989 marks the beginning of the global hegemony of Neoliberalism. I
 t was preceded by the collapse of state socialism\, the economic crisis of
  Yugoslavia as the most important representative of a “Third Way” and 
 by the “Washington Consensus”\, an economic concept which was initiall
 y intended for Latin America and then served as a blueprint for reforms wi
 thin Post-Communistic Europe. Neoliberal success stories like those of Chi
 le and Poland also had reverberations on the West. These reverberations wi
 ll be discussed by Professor Ther alongside the radicalization of Neoliber
 alism at the turn of the millennium\, which eventually led to the 2008-9 g
 lobal financial crisis. In addition\, Ther will discuss the widespread exp
 ectation during the post-1989 period that the creation of unrestrained mar
 ket economies would go hand in hand with democratization.Philipp Ther is P
 rofessor of Central European History at the University of Vienna\, where h
 e also guides the Research Cluster for the History of Transformations (REC
 ET). Three of his monographs have been published in English: Europe since 
 1989: A history (the German original was awarded with the non-fiction book
  prize of the Leipzig Bookfare)\; The Dark Side of Nation States: Ethnic C
 leansing in Modern Europe\, and Center Stage: Operatic Culture and Nation 
 Building in 19th Century Central Europe. In the fall his most recent book 
 The Outsiders: Refugees in Europe since 1492 will be published by Princeto
 n UP. His most recent German book is Das andere Ende der Geschichte: Über
  die Große Transformation. In 2019 was awarded the Wittgenstein Prize by 
 the Austrian Research Fund.
