market fundamentalism  

Definition

  • Market fundamentalism is primarily a pejorative description of laissez-faire ideology and standard neoclassical economics, which both assert that markets work best when left alone, especially from state interference. A central premise of market fundamentalism is that markets are self-regulating. [Source: Sociology of Work: An Encyclopedia; Market Fundamentalism]
