Abstract

In the wake of the report of the World Health Organisation's Commission on the Social Determinants of Health,Closing the gap in a generation(Marmot 2008), this invited commentary considers the scope for geographical research on global health. We reflect on current work and note future possibilities, particularly those that take a critical perspective on the interplay of globalisation, security and health.
