Global power concentration negatively impacts worldwide health. Alliances between dominant Northern and Southern groups oppose redistribution, harming dominated populations and their well-being.

Area of Science:

  • Global Health
  • Socioeconomic Determinants of Health
  • Political Economy

Background:

  • The article examines the global concentration of economic, political, and cultural power.
  • This concentration occurs in both developed (North) and developing (South) countries.
  • The analysis is based on a speech delivered at the Sixth IUHP European Conference on Health Promotion and Education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the health and well-being consequences of global power concentration.
  • To analyze the underlying alliances driving current global disorder.
  • To highlight the impact on dominated social groups.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative analysis of socioeconomic and political structures.
  • Examination of class alliances between global North and South dominant groups.

  • Discussion of the impact of these structures on health outcomes.

    • Main Results:

    • Global power concentration creates a 'world disorder'.
    • Dominant economic and financial groups in the North and South form alliances.
    • These alliances actively oppose redistributional policies to protect their interests.

    Conclusions:

    • The current global power structure adversely affects the health and well-being of the world's population.
    • Dominated classes and social groups in both the North and South suffer disproportionately.
    • Addressing health inequalities requires challenging existing power dynamics and economic policies.
