Can a complex subject like tax compliance be handled in such a
simple manner? Sibichen K Mathew is successful in presenting his
in-depth study on what makes people pay taxes or what prevents them
from paying in a very interesting style. The Author takes us
through the history, the economics and the politics of taxation to
dissect the interconnected issues related to tax evasion and tax
enforcement. He forcefully argues that the economic models are
unable to fully explain the behaviour of taxpayers. For, if the tax
laws are complex, the human mind is much more complex to yield to
the economic models. His arguments are supported by data on
attitudes, perceptions and experience of taxpayers, many of whom
declare themselves to be tax evaders. The author also analyzes the
sociological and economic causes and consequences of tax evasion
and tax enforcement in the global context. The author has also
briefly referred to the tax challenges thrown up by the integrated
world economy. The solution offered is scaling up of international
cooperation on a significant scale. The insights gained from these
incisive analyses have enormous implications for policy makers as
well as tax administrators all over the world. The taxpayers, tax
practitioners and the students of social sciences would also find
this book enriching.
