I am looking for data or indices that compare countries according to their 'levels' of neoliberal reforms. Although I know this can be tricky and contested, I want to know a country's neoliberalization level based on Harvey's insights, in four key aspects:
1. Level of pivatization of public enterprises 2. Deregulation of the economy 3. Liberalization of trade and industry 4. Massive tax cuts
Dear Vicente,
Perhaps having a look of Economic Freedom Indexes, on their evolution and on annual reports of institutions like Heritage Foundation or Fraser Institute, you could find some ideas to build your own indicators or to add a new interpretation of some "freedom vectors" as "neoliberalism vectors"
https://www.heritage.org/index/
https://www.fraserinstitute.org/studies/economic-freedom
Good luck,
Antonio.
I think that Index of Economic Freedom could be helpful for you: https://www.heritage.org/index/
Good luck!
I Would add the Gini index as an indicator of inequality, which per se is not an indicator of neoliberalism but is linked with the economic behaviour of those societies.
