The reports - Closing the Gap in a Generation (CSDH, 2009) and Fair Society, Healthy Lives (The Marmot Review, 2010) - are important for several reasons. First, they provide a framework of broad policy recommendations on which to base efforts to reduce both social policy recommendations on which t base efforts to reduce both social and health inequalities. Second, they provide a clarion call for action to develop integrated policy responses that are both deep and broad, and span portfolios and jurisdictions. Third, they synthesize over 30 years of accumulated research on social factors relevant to health inequalities. Many readers of Social Science & Medicine helped generate the more than 1000 references in these documents. The current reports are not the first of their kind (Acheson, 1998; Townsend & Davidson, 1982) and they have their own particular histories as products of public, intellectual and political recognition of the importance of acting to reduce health inequalities.
