Most people would agree that tax systems ought to be 'just', and
perhaps a great deal more just than they are at present. What is
more difficult is to agree on what tax justice is. This book
considers a range of different approaches to, and ideas about the
nature of tax justice and covers areas such as: - imbalances in
international tax arrangements that deprive developing countries of
revenues from natural resources and allow wealthy taxpayers to use
tax havens; - protests against governments and large business; -
attempts to influence policy through more technical means such as
the OECD's Base Erosion and Profits Shifting project; -
interpersonal matters, such as the ways in which tax systems
disadvantage women and minorities; - the application of wider
philosophical or economic theories to tax systems. The purpose of
the book is not to iron out these underlying differences into a
grand theory, but rather to gain a more precise understanding of
how and why we disagree about tax justice. In doing so the editors
are assisted by a stellar cast of contributors from four
continents, with a wide variety of views and experiences but a
common interest in this central question of how to agree and
disagree about tax justice. This is, of course, not only an
intellectual exercise but also a necessary precursor to achieving
real-world change.
