2. For example, Moisés Arce, Market Reform in Society: Post-Crisis Politics and Economic Change in Authoritarian Peru (University Park: Pennsylvania State University Press, 2005), puts the emphasis squarely on the two-way relationship of state reformers and civil society actors. Because these groups react to the costs and benefits of the reforms being implemented, their interaction is conditioned by key parameters of neoliberal policy making, such as fiscal restraint and the availability—or absence—of institutional points of access to make societal demands heard.
