“…Across the scattered pre‐1994 literature, the most coherent discussions were to be found in critical development studies and Latin American political economy (see Colclough and Manor 1991; Lomnitz and Melnick 1991) and in governmentality studies (see Rose and Miller 1992; Barry et al . 1993), albeit with almost no cross‐cutting conversations, while the term would pop up occasionally in a range of other contexts, and with different signifiers, in political theory (see Schoolman 1987; May 1993), international relations (see Wendt 1992; Niou and Ordeshook 1991), comparative political economy (see Garrett 1993; Aimer 1988), and in left commentary in the UK and, to a lesser extent, the United States (see Plotke 1986; Jessop et al . 1990).…”

The authors revisit their paper, ‘Jungle law breaks out: neoliberalism and global‐local disorder’, published by Area in 1994, commenting on the theoretical and political context of that time and on the subsequent course of debates around neoliberalism. Focusing on the Thatcherite strain of neoliberalism as a manifestation of post‐Keynesian crisis politics, and along with its associated strategies of deregulatory devolution, the paper called particular attention to the project's reactive moment and to its distinctive mode of scalar politics. Subsequent experience has underlined the stubbornly adaptive character of the neoliberalisation process, which nevertheless continues to be animated by crises (of a contingent and conjunctural nature), while propagating yet more asymmetrical forms of regulatory rescaling. It might be said that a kind of jungle law, in this sense, continues to hold sway.
