Chapter 57. Factor Mobility and Redistribution

This chapter reviews recent theoretical work on the effect of factor mobility and the ensuing tax competition on the capacity of governments to raise revenue and redistribute income. It focuses on three issues: the relevance and limitations of the race to the bottom result, the benefits and pitfalls of partial coordination and the incidence of factors mobility on social security systems.
