Essay / Research Paper Abstract
Before the mid-1990s, public policy was based on a welfare state in which the government was viewed as the answer to all societal ills. For example, in the circumstance where a person was without employment, that person would be assisted by the government with financial support. This changed with globalization, the end of the Cold War and the global market economy. Emulating their new fiscal outlooks, governments began applying “fiscal restraint” to all government policies and programs, which has become one of tenets of the neo-liberal discourse.

For example, in the circumstance where a person was without employment, that person would be assisted by the government with financial support. This changed with globalization, the end of the

the neo-liberal discourse. Neo-liberalism was viewed by many countries as a temporary policy measure meant to help them compete globally with the 1990s
booming economy of the United States, but fiscal restraint is no longer temporary. There has been a "qualitative" ideological policy shift incorporating neo-liberal economics. (Arat-Koc, 1999, 32). Where once, Australia
was a welfare state, its policies are now neo-liberal, as reflected in McClure et al., policy guidelines ("Participation Policy") concerning the countrys social support system.
Researchers studying how neo-liberalism has affected small, rural communities have called neo-liberalism the end of social justice values (Kagarlitsky, 1996; Klodawsky, 2001; Schwam-Bird, 2003). They often use
African states and Australian Aboriginal societies to show how the neo-liberal paradigm shift has delayed, or completely stopped economic development in these struggling economic pockets.
For this reason, the student may want to assert, these same researchers believe neo-liberal policies should not be adopted outright, but that a balance of neo-liberal and
social justice policies, community or culturally based, would better serve all communities (Magubane, 2002). The singular Participation Policy proposed by McClure et al. does not seek to strike such a
balance, and may therefore, have to be adjusted for the marginalized Australian societies. Neo-Liberal Aspects of the Participation Policy
