Overview
This work examines tax policies and tax systems as they arise from democratic choices, set against the background of a market economy. The authors argue that democratic institutions yield complex tax systems with features that follow a varied but predictable pattern. In developing their analysis, the authors use formal modelling of voting behaviour, emphasizing recent advances in the theory of probabilistic voting.
