4 main aspects to my presentation today:
Neoliberalism: creating the drive for uncontrolled globalization/ colonialization of health damaging
manufacturing and services by multinational companies set against a drive for low tax/ small state policies
The ‘Sovereign individuals’, the rise of the super-rich, oligarchy, increasing inequality through the offshoring
of wealth.
And the rise of populism, accelerating political corruption and distrust of governments, creating culture
wars; leading to politic instability across the globe, creating conditions of fear, distrust and opportunities
for conflict….
The information revolution has influenced all of these: the explosion of social media, and industrial
disinformation undermining individual thinking and undermining democratic processes
A Healthy State? John Middleton LEPH European Conference, Umea, Sweden, May 2023
11. Neoliberalism
A Healthy State? John Middleton LEPH European Conference, Umea, Sweden, May 2023
The rule of the market
Cutting public expenditure for social services
Deregulation
Privatisation
Eliminating the concept of ‘the public good’
Government represents bureaucratic bloat and political imposition.
Markets embody human freedom. And with markets, people get what they
deserve; to alter the market is to spoil the poor and punish the productive

A Healthy State? John Middleton LEPH European Conference, Umea, Sweden, May 2023
The ‘Sovereign individuals’:
the rise of the super rich,
oligarchy,
increasing inequality
through the offshoring of wealth.
‘The Sovereign Individual explores the
social and financial consequences of this
revolutionary change [the information
revolution] Our desire is to help you take
advantage of the opportunities of the new
age and to avoid being destroyed by its
impact.’
21. Political and societal constraints?
Geopolitics affects all administrations, policing and public heath services
A Healthy State? John Middleton LEPH European Conference, Umea, Sweden, May 2023
The ‘Sovereign individuals’:
The ‘Sovereign Individuals’ who will gain most from this liberation are ‘the brightest, most
brightest, most successful and ambitious’ among us, ‘those who can educate and motivate
and motivate themselves …. Genius will be unleashed, freed from both the oppression of
oppression of government.’
‘Persons of even quite modest means will soar as the gravitational pull of politics on the global
politics on the global economy weakens. Unprecedented financial independence will be a
independence will be a reachable goal in your lifetime or that of your children.’
The ‘left-behinds’ realise they have been taken for a ride and their communities
and way of life are under threat. ‘A time of great danger and great reward.’
22. Political and societal constraints?
Geopolitics affects all administrations, policing and public heath services
A Healthy State? John Middleton LEPH European Conference, Umea, Sweden, May 2023
The ‘Sovereign individuals’:
‘The good news is that politicians will no more be able to dominate, suppress and regulate the
greater part of commerce in this new realm’
Governments will have to treat people like customers, ‘and less in a way that organised
criminals treat the victims of a shakedown racket… First in scores, then in hundreds, and
ultimately in the millions, individuals will escape the shackles of politics.’
‘Latter-day barbarians like the Russian mafia, other ethnic criminal gangs, drug lords, and
renegade covert agencies will be laws unto themselves.‘

"Darkness is good: Dick Cheney. Darth

for the UK in the deepest point of the

‘We should regard want,

and disease as enemies of us

Editor's Notes
Multinational companies reproduce the individualistic narrative and current economic and social models that leave so many behind and fuel violence and despair.
The police and the public bear the brunt.
Key examples are the alcohol and fossil fuel industries.
These industries fuel so much inequity, ill-health and violence yet they present themselves are part of the solution, often funding CSR programmes ostensibly designed to meet the needs of people, while acting to prevent policies we know are needed to address the harms caused by their products and distort evidence and understanding.
