Dans cet article, nous nous intéressons à la nature des interactions fiscales au sein de l’UE27 en matière d’impôt sur les sociétés. Nous estimons un modèle empirique de choix fiscal au sein de l’UE27 sur la période 1995-2007 en utilisant la méthode des moments généralisés et...

The possibility opened to mayors to adopt the reform sooner (2013) or later (2014) offers the opportunity to measure how much the interests of the children have weighted on the decision....

This article contributes to the literature on local tax interactions. Its novelty lies in its focus on the interactions of local governments across national borders. We use panel data for the French and German municipalities in the Rhine Valley for the period 2000–2007. The local governments...

This paper disentangles between two hypotheses on the determinants of Australia's and the US' average tariffs levels. Relying on historical data that covers a century (1904 to 2005), it is first shown that a break in the series occurs in 1947, forcing to separate the data into two sub-periods...
