Parallels and ruptures in the neoliberal intensive parenting regime
This Open Space commentary offers a response to the special issue article by Ana Vergara del Solar, shedding light on global linkages and discontinuities in childhood and parenting in two national contexts that sit at the heart of the neoliberal project, Chile and the UK. In particular,
it explores how social investment rationales have worked to instrumentalise parent‐child relationships, enforcing a stifling intensification of parenting.
