Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neoliberal policies focus on reducing state control and regulation of domestic capital markets, allowing for more free market competition and private enterprise. This approach emphasizes individual responsibility and reducing government involvement in economic affairs. The other options, such as increasing social responsibility of the state or worker/environmental protection, are not typically associated with neoliberalism.
