Reducing Inequality in Latin America (eBook, ePUB)

The Role of Tax Policy

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the role of tax policy in the incidence of socio-economic inequality. With a focus on Latin America, the author demonstrates that while inequality has decreased remarkably in the last decade - during the very period in which inequality was increasing almost everywhere else in the world - this reduction cannot be attributed to a better use of tax policy. Offering both quantitative and qualitative reviews of tax policies pursued by Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru over the last two decades, Reducing Inequality in Latin America contends that these countries continue to make insufficient use taxation measures in combating startlingly high levels of inequality.
