With an accessible style and clear structure, Miranda Stewart explains how taxation finances government in the twenty-first century, exploring tax law in its historical, economic, and social context. Today, democratic tax states face an array of challenges, including the changing nature of work, the digitalisation and globalisation of the economy, and rebuilding after the fiscal crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic. Stewart demonstrates the centrality of taxation for government budgets and explains key tax principles of equity, efficiency and administration. Presenting examples from a wide range of jurisdictions and international developments, Stewart shows how tax policy and law operate in our everyday lives, ranging from family and working life to taxing multinational enterprises in the global digital economy. Employing an interdisciplinary approach to the history and future of taxation law and policy, this is a valuable resource for legal scholars, practitioners and policy makers.

Tax reform is deeply political. There is now a significant body of political and economic research by political scientists and sociologists, concerning fiscal politics or sociology, in particular addressing taxation in democracies. At the same time, we take for granted, nowadays, that the deployment of a body of expertise is required in the formulation, legislation and application of tax policy and law. In this context, it is often said that politics is an obstacle to tax reform, so that tax reform will be most successful where a space is created in the political process for experts to do their work. Yet, it is clear that tax reform processes dominated by experts may also fail. This paper attempts to develop a theory of the role of tax experts that can help explain the more complex and situated outcomes of tax reform processes. The paper uses discourse theory to reveal the politics of a tax expert consensus and to explain the political outcomes of expert engagement in tax reform in particular discursive contexts. It looks at the generation of tax expert consensus or norms in the “decade” of tax reform, being primarily the 1980s (but extending into the 1990s), illustrating the discussion wtih examples from the US and Ghana.
