Fantastic! Really well put together and super interesting. Shows some of the madness of the world we live in. Everyone should go, very eye opening - the guy running it is lovely also. Make sure you book to go so they know to open, and it’s free!

Go there and make your own mind up. As art l like what l saw. Some need to give him a big break and see if his art would change.

I have visited this twice . It is certainly a very interesting place to visit .It is explained how neo-liberalism came about as a reaction to the reforms in capitalist countries in the 1960s as well as increasing working class militancy and the rise of new movements . In my humble opinion the museum vastly overstates the reforms in capitalist countries and their effects . Nevertheless it is a fact that the bosses of the big monopolies perceived their power and privileges to be under threat and sought to reverse and rollback any concessions . It is rightly pointed out by the museum that markets are something that do not exist on their own , they are creations of man and something that is brought into existence by force . This punctures the mythology of bourgeois and neo-liberal thinking that tries to assert that the market is like a force of nature or even some kind of god . The deeply exploitative nature of capitalism is exposed in the Museum . One of the exhibits is a bottle of Amazon workers urine which is a part of a whole section on Amazon which in the last few decades has emerged as a powerful international monopoly enslaving its workers and ripping off consumers. However I think the Museum went too far by including Deng Xiaoping in the rogues gallery of neo-liberals , although of course ' reform ' and 'opening up' in China may be construed as an ideological retreat . Surely Gorbachov and Yeltsin should be listed as neo -liberals as they wrecked a socialist country and brought about mass unemployment ,poverty and destitution . Similarly the museum is critical of Brexit but isn't the EU itself a neo-liberal institution and pro market ?

Whether you've read a lot of books about Neoliberalism or only experienced it blighting your everyday life, you'll learn something here. Recommended for all ages.

Amazingly depressing summary of the rise and spread of neoliberalism, and the danger it has put our society in. Well worth visiting and buying something from the shop to support it going forward.
