Catalyst examines some of the myths around the big business campaign to lower the corporate tax rate. Professor Rick Krever from Monash University explains how corporate tax avoidance affects all Australians.
Catalyst is proud to launch the first in a series of readers: Equality Speaks
Australia may have dodged the bullet that has put the US, Britain and most European economies on life support, but our new collection of essays shows that – despite our enviable economic position – Australia is not the egalitarian paradise that many believe it to be.
Equality Speaks features an eclectic mix of writers who highlight a common challenge – to use our (relatively) stable economic times to make the shift to a fairer Australia. It includes new research on the distribution of wealth in Australia. And it brings together some of our sharpest minds to look at paths to a more equal Australia in areas like transport, homelessness, education, women, tax, refugees, work and employment amongst others.
