did very much enjoy neoliberal newspeak dictionary, as posted below, some translations into english although semantics culturally determined, so slightly skewed:

abstract - reflective, synthetic, concrete
archaic - not corresponding to neoliberal universe, resisting, modernistic
creative - commercial
liberal - monopolistic, social darwinist
modern - neoliberal, feudal-capitalistic, regressive
modernization - neoliberal assimilation, job cuts, reduction of public services, counter reform
pragmatic - technocratic, economically liberal
restucturing - job cuts
subjective (negative connotation) - breaking through uncritically accepted notions, objective
unideological - ideological, systemic

etc.
