I have space for one more presenter on an AAA panel about how
neoliberal instructions can go awry.<br>
<br>
Please let me know if you would be interested in participating on a
panel with this description:<br>
<br>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<p class="MsoNormal">Instruction and Improvisation under
Neoliberalism:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When Telling Others How to be Neoliberal Goes
Awry</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Neoliberal logics, like all logics, encounter
problems when
implemented.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>To analyze
these<br>
moments,
this panel takes instances of instruction as particularly
illuminating moments
in which<br>
vivid conversations emerge about how difficult it is to put
neoliberal
models into practice.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Everyday<br>
social
life is filled with conversations in which one person or a small
group attempts
to instruct<br>
others about how the world should be.<span
style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>These panelists turn to the
moments in which
people are<br>
told that they should consume, labor, organize, and innovate
according
to neoliberal precepts.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> <br>
</span>In response,
people express their reservations or reveal through their actions
the failures
in these models.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> <br>
</span>By focusing on moments
of telling, we are able to make visible both social actors’ local
analysis of<br>
neoliberal social models for action, and the challenges of
implementing these
models.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We compare<br>
advice with
implementation and rules with improvised practice, using this
ethnographic lens
on<br>
telling to see the fissures in neoliberal logics.</p>
