    © Copyright 2020 Will McKeithen 1 Life in Prison: Biopolitics, Ill-Being, and the Neoliberal Penitentiary Will McKeithen A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2020 Reading Committee: Michael Brown, Chair Kim England Larry Knopp Megan Ybarra Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Geography 2 University of Washington Abstract Life in Prison: Biopolitics, Ill-Being, and the Neoliberal Penitentiary Will McKeithen Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. Michael Brown Department of Geography In the US today, 2.3 million prisoners have a constitutional right to healthcare. At the same time, policies driven by neoliberalism and White supremacy have ballooned US prisons, incarcerating largely the working and workless urban poor. This dissertation investigates this juncture through a case study of prison healthcare in Washington state prisons – both its everyday practice and its administration. To do this, I employ policy analysis alongside interviews with state actors, prisoner advocates, and formerly incarcerated women and trans folks. I make three claims. First, I argue that the prisoner’s ostensible right to healthcare depends upon a particular form of what I term ‘carceral biocitizenship.’ Both prison policy and prison healthcare enable and result from a double ontological violence: first, the incarcerated person’s biological being is divorced from its political context or agency; second, the incarcerated person’s biological needs are devalued according to a penal hierarchy of human value. Second, I argue that nutritionist ideologies have been central in enabling the project of mass incarceration. Over the past two decades, Washington state has combined nutritionist ideology with neoliberal rationalities to slowly marketize its prison food system, producing a malnutritious prison food system harmful to prisoner health, well-being, political life, and dignity.

As Royal Naval Unit training whilst supporting NRCEE’s civic many of you will be aware, and employer engagement. the primary role of the four Naval Regional Com- manders (NRCs) is to do what they can to ensure that the Royal Navy as a whole, is understood, re- spected and valued by the society that it serves. We refer to this work as ‘engagement’ and we normally seek to exploit op- portunities to put our Service ‘in the public eye’ in ceremonial and civic events as well as through warship visits to non-Naval ports and other visits by our people to employers, communities and other organisations across our respective regions. Covid-19 has certainly put paid to almost all of that! However, what you may not know is that a key ‘secondary role’ of the NRCs is in the planning for and co-ordination of, the Royal Navy’s contribution to what is known as ‘Military Aid to the Civil Author- ities’ and so, understandably, in the last 2 months HMS RANGER & CIVILIAN / MILITARY GUESTS or so our focus has shifted from engagement to resilience operations.
