International Tax and Public Finance

International Tax and Public Finance

http://www.springerlink.com/content/102915/

Government finance is a vital aspect of public policy. With growing
awareness of international and inter-regional dimensions, the analysis of
public finance in open economies is fast becoming a leading area of economic
research.

International Tax and Public Finance serves as an outlet for, and seeks to
stimulate, first-rate research on both theoretical and empirical aspects of
tax policy, broadly interpreted to include expenditure and financial
policies. Special emphasis is on open economy issues: the coordination of
policies across jurisdictions, for instance, or the effects of taxation on
capital and trade flows. This international focus is not, however, an
exclusive one: high quality work in any area of tax policy - single-country
tax reform analysis, for instance - is also welcome.

A central feature of International Tax and Public Finance is the inclusion
in each issue of a special section called the International Policy Watch,
discussing a current policy issue, or reviewing some recent tax
developments. Facilitating communication between academic work and tax
practice in this way serves many purposes - researchers need to know
priorities, for example, and policy-makers need to absorb the products of
research.

International Tax and Public Finance is peer-reviewed. Reflecting the
international focus, one editor is located in North America and the other in
Europe. An active Editorial Board reinforces this diversity and, more
important, plays a central role in establishing the journal as an essential
resource for tax policy analysis.
