This book is about the distribution of poverty and inequality in Australia.
It is well documented: your postcode often determines whether you have access to resources or not. Postcode explores what's happening in Australia today: the growing polarisation of wealth and opportunity on the one hand and poverty and disadvantage on the other has been allowed to develop unchecked by governments.
Author Wayne Swan, ALP Shadow Treasurer, believes that a reformed Labor government must promote the drivers of opportunity in local communities. Australia has always prided itself on its egalitarian character - the sense of a fair go. This is now under threat from growing poverty and inequality.
This book examines the fracturing of the Australian nation occurring along geographic lines.
