Managing disorder: towards a global state of control? | ROAR Magazine

 We are witnessing the emergence of a new form of "democratic"
authoritarianism — a globalized regime that hides behind a facade of
free markets, fair elections and the rule of law to secure the
increasing concentration of wealth and power by shrinking the public
space for democratic participation and popular dissent.

Refusing to tackle the causes of
our troubles and allow public space for dissent, the neoliberal state
is sliding inexorably towards authoritarianism.
