What constitutes a just tax system, and what are its moral
foundations? Should a society's tax regime be designed to achieve a
just distribution of wealth among its citizens, or should such a
regime be designed to promote economic growth, rising standards of
living, and increasing levels of employment? Are these two goals
compatible or incompatible? Why should justice not require, or at
least lead to, an increase in general prosperity? The essays in
this volume examine the history of tax policies and the normative
principles that have informed the selection of various types of
taxes and tax regimes; economic data to discover which tax policies
lead to economic growth; particular theories of justice or property
rights regarding the design of tax systems; and other essays
propose specific tax reforms. Still others challenge traditional
theories of taxation, offering new ways of understanding the fiscal
relationship between governments and their citizens.
