  Neoliberalism is a term widely used to describe a set of economic policies and ideas that emphasize the importance of free markets, deregulation, privatization, and limited government intervention. Emerging in the mid-20th century, neoliberalism represented a distinct shift away from the welfare state and Keynesian economics, which had dominated Western economies in the post-World War II era. At its core, neoliberalism advocates for the belief that markets, if left to operate freely, will create wealth, drive economic growth, and improve human well-being. This chapter introduces the key tenets of neoliberal thought and traces its rise to prominence. 
  The intellectual origins of neoliberalism can be traced back to economists and thinkers such as Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, and Ludwig von Mises, who were critical of state intervention in the economy. They argued that government efforts to regulate markets, redistribute wealth, and promote social welfare were inefficient and counterproductive. Instead, they believed that economic freedom, unencumbered by regulation or state control, would lead to more prosperous societies. These ideas gained traction in the 1970s when the world was facing economic stagnation, inflation, and high unemployment, a period often referred to as the “stagflation” crisis. 
  As a response to these challenges, neoliberalism became the intellectual and policy framework that justified sweeping changes in global economic practices. It was championed by leaders such as British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and U.S. President Ronald Reagan, who implemented reforms based on neoliberal principles. These included reducing taxes, privatizing state-owned industries, cutting social welfare programs, and embracing global free trade. The goal was to increase individual freedom and market efficiency by minimizing the role of the state in economic affairs.

  Social work is a vital profession dedicated to improving the quality of life for individuals, families, and communities. It encompasses a broad range of practices aimed at addressing social issues, alleviating suffering, and promoting social change. Rooted in the principles of social justice, human rights, and empowerment, social work strives to enhance the well-being of marginalized populations while fostering an equitable society. 
    
  At its core, social work is grounded in the understanding that individuals exist within the context of their environment. This ecological perspective highlights the interplay between personal, social, economic, and cultural factors that influence people’s lives. Social workers utilize this holistic approach to assess the needs and challenges faced by clients, recognizing that effective interventions must address not only the individual but also the systemic barriers that contribute to their difficulties. 
    
  Social work practice is diverse, encompassing various fields, including healthcare, mental health, child welfare, education, and community development. Each area requires specialized knowledge and skills, allowing social workers to adapt their interventions to meet the unique needs of different populations. For instance, a social worker in a school setting may focus on supporting students with behavioral challenges, while one in a healthcare facility may advocate for patients navigating complex medical systems.

  This bundle traces one of the most pivotal shifts in world history—the evolution of Rome from a democratic republic to a sprawling autocratic empire, and ultimately to its dramatic collapse. The journey begins with the political structures of the early Republic, where consuls, senators, and assemblies worked in a delicate balance of power. Readers will discover how the ideals of civic duty and public service were gradually overshadowed by corruption, ambition, and the thirst for control, setting the stage for inevitable conflict. 
  The second part centers on the charismatic and controversial figure of Julius Caesar, whose rise exposed the Republic’s vulnerabilities. His military conquests, political maneuvering, and ultimate assassination marked the end of the old order. Following his death, the book charts the tumultuous path to empire—highlighting the power struggles between Octavian, Antony, and Cleopatra that ended in the birth of the Roman Empire under Augustus. Reforms, propaganda, and centralization of authority created a new Rome—one ruled by emperors, not elected officials. 
  In the final section, the focus broadens to the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. From the Pax Romana to the chaos of civil wars, barbarian invasions, and economic crises, readers will see how internal instability and external pressure chipped away at the once-unbreakable empire. This segment also explores Rome's lasting legacy in law, architecture, language, and governance. Transformation of Rome offers a sweeping, yet richly detailed narrative of power, collapse, and the enduring impact of one of history’s greatest civilizations.
