Details

Derived from Theuns Steyn's doctoral dissertation, A Conceptual Framework for Evaluating the Tax Burden of Individual Taxpayers makes a substantial contribution to the national and international debate on taxation law and policy. It explores the highly controversial issue of the tax burden of individual taxpayers.

Studies and debates around the tax burden are often contradictory, largely because there is no comprehensive basis from which to evaluate this, especially from the perspective of the individual taxpayer. This book provides a conceptual framework for evaluating the tax burden of individual taxpayers, both objectively, in terms of the imposed tax burden, and subjectively, in terms of the perceived tax burden.

The book provides:

an analysis of the constructs of the imposed tax burden and the perceived tax burden;
the formulation of objective criteria for classifying government imposts according to their inherent characteristics, irrespective of the label given to a particular impost by the government; and
the conceptualisation of a framework for evaluating the tax burden of individual taxpayers from a lived-experience perspective.

A Conceptual Framework for Evaluating the Tax Burden of Individual Taxpayers is the fifth book in the Australasian Tax Teachers Association (ATTA) Doctoral Series.
