Jobs, care and justice: a fair work regime for Australia
No full textIn this lecture Barbara Pocock explores the connections between work, care and justice. She argues that Australia is currently missing the opportunity to build a better society that is happier and more sustainable for its citizens in the longer term. Australian governments – of all political colours – are mis-reading the current political and demographic situation of Australians and creating a work and social regime that is a step backwards from what we have had, and very far from what we now need
