Tax levies and legal certainty: hendiadys or oxymoron?
On 1 August 2023, Marcello Poggioli, University Professor of International and Italian Tax Law (University of Padova) discussed recent developments in the Italian domestic legislation and in EU law regarding the introduction of a general anti-avoidance clause (GAAR).

The 2022 Australian Election Study
The 2022 Australian federal election was distinctive in several ways. The election was the first in many decades to be held in the wake of a major crisis, in this case the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, almost one in three voters cast their ballots for a minor party or independent candidate, the highest since the 1930s. Of the two major parties, the Liberals fared worst, winning their lowest seat share since 1946. What explains this seismic result, and what does it tell us about the future of electoral politics in Australia? This drew on the recently released 2022 Australian Election Study – a comprehensive post-election survey conducted at each election since 1987 – to examine what drove voter behaviour in the 2022 Australian federal election. The discussion covered the impact of government performance, generational change, as well as what can explain the rise of the Teal independents.This event was organised by the Queensland chapter of the Electoral Regulation Research Network (ERRN).
