Rezensionen

"Selva's in-depth analysis of US finance policies a welcome addition to the scholarship in aiding understanding of the actors who have co-created the market for alternative fuels through subsidies, mandates and the much-hyped knowledge-based economy. ... Before the Neoliberal Turn is a valuable book for social scientists interested in the history of energy finance and American democracy."
