crisis, an efficiency crisis (concerning prices, quality
and access), and a crisis of profitability – but crises
do not necessarily lead to an end to privatizations, rat -
her they lead to new ways and strategies for making
them more effective. Politicians and investors are loo -
king for other (investment) opportunities. Nevertheless,
we can observe shifts in the social climate that enable
successes in anti-privatization campaigns, foster remu -
nicipalisations and the debate about the public sphere.
