Theorizing neoliberalism without recognizing how it is shaped by a range of contestations to its hegemonic drive, contestations that are more than just "resistance" in the way they help reshape neoliberalism itself, risks essentializing neoliberalism and failure to understand its development, or so argues the introduction to the 15 papers presented here by Leitner (geography, U. of Minnesota), Peck (geography, U. of Wisconsin at Madison), and Sheppard (geography, U. of Minnesota). Most of the papers are case studies of urban contestations of neoliberalism by grassroots groups, city governments, nongovernmental organizations, and other actors and their impact on urban political geographies, while the few others address the broader theoretical issues of neoliberalism and its contestations.
