Abstract: Abstract This chapter examines tax evasion as a widespread phenomenon. We investigate tax evasion in relation to both the shadow economy related to tax corruption and entrepreneurship. Further, we study the determinants of tax evasion and then we look at the role of tax ethics because the tax ethics is related to tax rates. Low tax rates lead to high compliance, which in turn leads to higher tax ethics and thus low tax evasion and ultimately growth.
