The structural reasons for ongoing poverty and unjustice: close attention to the social" around us show that there is a pattern to injustice and there is a pattern to those who are at the receiving end. Neo-liberalism: classical liberalism: 19th century political economic thought that promoted individual liberty and equality in spheres of life. The market was considered the site which through its mechanisms of exchange will ensure the equality between people. No intervention from the government: the state of liberalism is basically saying that the state will never step in, and it should be just the market stepping in. Screaming in pain, and doing something dramatic before something changes. Every individual should be involved in the process.
