Catching Capital: The Ethics of Tax Competition

Tax competition draws into question political economic life as we know it. It undermines the fiscal autonomy of states and contributes to rising income inequalities. This book develops a normative and institutional framework to regulate tax competition. Importantly, the author shows that the proposed regulation compromises neither efficiency nor sovereignty.
