The chapter discusses the societal shift in attitudes towards paying taxes and contributing to society, contrasting the past pride in paying taxes to the current trend of tax avoidance. Emphasis is placed on the importance of social responsibility and contributing back to society amidst concerns about income inequality and offshore centers.
Continuing from our last episode, we’re joined again by Brooke Harrington, Professor of Sociology at Dartmouth College and Herbert Chang, Assistant Professor of Quantitative Social Science at Dartmouth College.
In this episode, Brooke and Herbert explore their research findings on the offshore financial system and discuss why policy interventions to date targeting wealth management have largely failed. They then explore how the findings of their research offer a way forward.
