Taxation and Development: The Weakest Link?

Edited by Richard Bird and Jorge Martinez-Vazquez ()

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Taxation and Development highlights the importance of better understanding the ways in which taxes and expenditure are linked. Focusing on developing countries, the book argues for a broader approach to the topic, with a secondary focus on developing and applying new modeling techniques to country-specific data.
