The concept of fairness is something most of us are taught about as children, but in reality our brains are already hardwired for it. In his new book To Be Fair, former Financial Times journalist Ben Fenton explores the ideas of fairness, how it's part of our genetic make-up, and how we need it now more than ever. In the book, Fenton advocates for the need to put fairness at the centre of public life and policy. He says the most unfair event to happen in our lifetimes is that the people who caused the global financial crisis of 2007-08 got away scot-free, while others were left to pick up the pieces. Fenton says through writing the book he learned New Zealand is the country which spends most time thinking about fairness.
