Your Definition
The global hegemony of the neoliberal worldview—privatization, deregulation, financialization, and the individual as a market actor—to the point where it is the unchallengeable, "common sense" backdrop of all political and social life. There is no alternative (TINA). All institutions, from schools to hospitals, are remade in the image of the market. Resistance is framed as irrational, inefficient, or nostalgic. The totalitarianism is economic: your value is your market value, and your life is a portfolio to be optimized.
