Risking Together
Risking Together by Emeritus Professor Dick Bryan and Michael Rafferty explores a significant social and economic experiment in Australia, where financial risks are increasingly being shifted onto ordinary people.
We are encouraged to manage ourselves as if we were businesses, yet these businesses are facing tighter constraints. Households are bearing more risk and financial stress, with an implicit expectation to be stable, secure payers.
This book delves into the underlying forces driving these changes and considers how we might resist them.
