How do we move toward fairer systems for taxation across the globe, including ensuring that developing countries receive a fair and just allocation of tax? What are the ethics of corporate tax shuffling? The nature of work seems to be changing, and there are changing expectations around corporations. Should job creation be a key concern for corporates? How do corporates play a better and more positive role in society?

A panel discussion with:

• Mr Jonathan Day, Vice Chairman, Tapestry Network
• Mr Koushik Chatterjee, Group Executive Director (Finance and Corporate), Tata Steel
• Professor Colin Mayer, Saïd Business School
• Dr Emily Jones, Associate Professor in Public Policy (Global Economic Governance), Blavatnik School of Government (Chair)

This discussion is part of the Challenges of Government Conference 2017 at the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford.

Politics across the world is in tumult. A new populism has emerged from both left and right. Globalisation is under attack. Across every continent, electorates have lost patience with the establishment elites who have traditionally run countries and international institutions. The ‘left behind’ are stepping forward. This year, the Blavatnik School of Government’s annual Challenges of Government Conference focuses on this revolution: the  breakdown in trust, the reasons behind it, and what an effective response might look like. Those taking part include global leaders and practitioners who are striving daily to address the crisis, as well as leading academics who will set out their latest cutting-edge ideas.
