摘要：In discussions of neoliberalism, the "New Zealand Experiment" of the 1980s and 1990s is often seen as a paradigmatic case. It was an early, and, to a certain extent, exemplary instance of the move towards new understandings of economy and society. International attention focused on this country not only because of the depth and speed of the reforms instituted by successive governments since 1984, but also because this case appeared to involve the direct application of a clearly delineated theoretical model. Today, the "new New Zealand Experiment" is also receiving international attention.
