Neoliberalism

One of the more noteworthy features of neoliberalism is the way that it has de-democraticised all other spheres than formal politics (and perhaps the family?). It is not just that it leads to re-oligarichisation: it's that business enterprises and bureaucracies (including universities) become increasingly inegalitarian and administered from above. There's no real ideological support for this even from within neoliberalism itself it seems to me.
