It highlighted its philosophical roots, particularly from early liberal philosophers like John Locke and Immanuel Kant, focusing on their ideas of individual freedom, private property, and the call for minimal state intervention in the economy, which are fundamental tenets of neoliberalism. The study aimed to uncover the perspectives of neoliberal pioneers such as Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, and Robert Nozick regarding the role of the state and individual freedoms. Hayek emphasized that the best form of the state is one that fulfills its functions without infringing on individual liberties, while Friedman opposed state intervention, fearing it could lead to tyranny and the suppression of individual freedom. The thesis concluded with several insights, notably that neoliberal policies contribute to increased social inequality by influencing the fair distribution of wealth and opportunities. Moreover, it highlighted the profound impact and reflection of neoliberal thought on societies, starting from the individual to the community, and its implications for state structures, power dynamics, cultural systems, and values. It emphasized the profound societal changes that can occur through embracing or at least engaging with this ideological framework. At the end of the discussion, the researcher was awarded a master&#8217;s degree with a &#8220;very good&#8221; grade, wishing success and prosperity to all our dear students.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2338 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420300352_428297113186224_1714386761678031583_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420300352_428297113186224_1714386761678031583_n.jpg 750w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420300352_428297113186224_1714386761678031583_n-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420300352_428297113186224_1714386761678031583_n-600x402.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2339 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420449927_428297069852895_6838180671212869075_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"612\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420449927_428297069852895_6838180671212869075_n.jpg 750w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420449927_428297069852895_6838180671212869075_n-300x245.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/420449927_428297069852895_6838180671212869075_n-600x490.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2337 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/434575848_428297106519558_537436651169255503_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/434575848_428297106519558_537436651169255503_n.jpg 750w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/434575848_428297106519558_537436651169255503_n-300x174.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/04\/434575848_428297106519558_537436651169255503_n-600x349.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The College of Political Science discussed Neoliberalism in Western Political Thought in a master&#8217;s thesis titled &#8220;Neoliberalism in Western Political &#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":2338,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[11,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2336","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archives","category-graduate-studies-discussions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
