Offshore History – new web page

November 18, 2010

By Nicholas Shaxson

Nicholas Shaxson, the editor of TJN's Tax Justice Focus and writer for the Tax Justice Network, is an associate fellow at Chatham House in London and the author of a book about tax havens, entitled Treasure Islands, launched in 2011.

The Tax Justice Network has a new section on its website, entitled Offshore History.

Currently, it contains just a few links pointing to documents that cover important elements in the growth of tax havens, or secrecy jurisdictions. Over time, more details will be added. Comments and suggestions for further material would be most welcome.
