Drawing on interviews with numerous public officials in France and a comprehensive biographical database of over 200 civil servants who transitioned into corporate law, Antoine Vauchez and Pierre France examine how this dynamic, prevalent in Western democracies, has evolved alongside the rise of neoliberalism over the past three decades. The book highlights how the blurred boundary between public service and private interests has been severely compromised, leading to the transformation of the regulatory state into either an ineffective bystander or an active collaborator in the privatization of public welfare. The cumulative effect of these developments, as revealed by the authors, undermines democratic citizenship and the ability to envision the common good.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 326g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 151 x 228 x 18 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781501752551                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antoine Vauchez,Pierre France","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095755944186,"sku":"9781501752551","price":15.16,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1418a573e06af478f64f17213ea6852a.jpg?v=1621172661","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/neoliberal-republic-corporate-lawyers-statecraft-and-the-making-of-public-private-france","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
