"An original interpretation of the neoliberal order's origins, The Marketizers is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the marketization of politics since the 1980s. The Marketizers traces the origins of the neoliberal order to public choice theory. It argues that the reinvention of government on the model of the market would have been unimaginable without the emergence of this body of thought. The separation of provision and production in public services, the introduction of competition between service providers, the treatment of citizens as customers, and the use of performance incentives all derive from the writings of public choice theorists. From the 1940s through the 1980s, these marketizers gradually eroded the differences between politics and the market as they applied the tools of economics to problems usually considered the purview of political scientists and political philosophers. In response to the extraordinary postwar growth in American public expenditures, they reimagined politics as a marketplace, redefined the relationship between the state and its citizens as a commercial transaction between a firm and its customers, and argued for the marketization of government." -- Book jacket.

Bogens hovedtema er konflikten mellem Kina og USA. Den giver et tilbageblik på Kinas historie, med hovedvægt på de sidste årtiers store økonomiske og teknologiske vækst, som har forårsaget den nuværende handelskonflikt med USA. Den gennemgår forspillet til konflikten og dens udvikling. Det er ikke blot en isoleret konflikt imellem to stormagter, men en strid om, hvilken verdensorden der skal gælde fremover. Kina ønsker en multilateral verdensorden, mens USA kæmper for fortsættelse af den nuværende. Imellem de to stridende stormagter står den vestlige verden, som traditionelt accepterer USA’s ledelse, og ulandene, som føler sig ladt i stikken af Vesten og ser op til Kinas præstationer.Jacob Jensen er pensioneret civilingeniør. Han har været aktiv på venstrefløjen siden ungdommen. Han er vendt tilbage til Danmark efter at have boet i Afrika i 25 år og har der fået direkte indblik i konsekvenserne af Vestens fortsatte indflydelse i ulande. Han har i de sidste 7 år været medlem af Rudersdals kommunalbestyrelse."Konflikten mellem Kina og USA er en underlig størrelse. Det er ikke en konflikt, der kæmpes med våben, men med forbud, restriktioner, handelsaftaler, teknologi og diplomati. Denne bog af Jacob Jensen giver et indblik i de spændinger og den magtkamp, der er mellem Kina og USA." (Lektørudtalelse, DBK)
