Abstract
This chapter addresses the often unidentified cultural assumptions embedded within neoliberalism; specifically, the chapter explores what ecofeminist Plumwood (2002) describes as centric thinking, leading to what Warren (1990) refers to as a logic of domination. The authors argue that social justice educators and activists who are committed to critiquing neoliberalism must take into consideration the ways in which a logic of domination undergirds the unjust and destructive social and economic ideologies and policies that constitute neoliberalism.
