Dr. Peter Dietsch

Biography

Peter Dietsch is a Professor in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Victoria. His research primarily focuses on economic ethics, including topics such as tax justice, the normative dimensions of monetary policy, and income inequalities. He has published several articles in academic journals as well as in public media. Notable works include 'Catching Capital – Ethics Tax Competition' (Oxford University Press, 2015), 'Central Banks Serve People?' (Polity Press, 2018), and 'Global Tax Governance – Wrong Fix' (ECPR Press, 2016). Dietsch's current research projects explore the implications of individual productivity and cooperation in relation to income distribution. He argues that traditional economic theories often overlook the importance of cooperative surplus and labor market dynamics in explaining income disparities. Additionally, his work examines how monetary policy responses to economic crises impact wealth distribution in a transitioning economy.
