| Publisher Description: This book does not present a single philosophical approach to taxation and ethics, but instead demonstrates the divergence in opinions and approaches using a framework consisting of three broad categories: tax policy and design of tax law; ethical standards for tax advisors and taxpayers; and tax law enforcement. In turn, the book addresses a number of moral questions in connection with taxes, concerning such topics as: -the nature of government -the relation between government (the state) and its subjects or citizens -the moral justification of taxes-the link between property and taxation-tax planning, evasion and avoidance -corporate social responsibility-the use of coercive power in collecting taxes and enforcing tax laws -ethical standards for tax advisors -tax payer rights -the balance between individual rights to liberty and privacy, and government compliance and information requirements -the moral justification underlying the efforts of legislators and policymakers to restructure society and steer individual and corporate behavior. |
