Non-interventionist governments were forced into greater intervention
Evidence
On the reverse side of the coin, governments ideologically com mitted to non-intervention and fiscal conservatism have been forced by events to be more rather than less interventionist. Laying aside the degree to which the evident insecurities of flexible accumulation create a climate conducive to authoritarianism of the Thatcher Reagan type, financial instability and the massive problems of internal and external indebtedness have forced periodic interventions in un stable financial markets. — David Harvey, The Condition of Postmodernity, 1030
