Social policies, health care access, and political incorporation have driven these changes over time.

Four distinct policy periods shaped the evolution of health inequalities: the Interbellum Era, 1920–1950; the Trente Glorieuse, 1950–1980; Neoliberalism, 1980–2010; and the Crisis Age, 2010–present.

Health inequalities generally decreased across the twentieth century through to the early 1980s. They then started to increase and accelerated further from 2010, particularly in the UK and USA.
