Abstract
This chapter argues that, under liberalism, class inequalities are rescripted to appear as a consequence of individual choices, and poverty is “deserved” or “no excuse”. Positive values of freedom and liberty have, in this context, been mobilised to disengage people from shared collectives, flattening cultures, universalising cultures, and positioning liberalism as anti-culture. And it is precisely this acultural positioning of liberalism that makes it possible to remove recognition of the power that produces the metabolic rift between food systems, public health, and equity priorities.
