Studies of the Americas: Taxation and Society in Twentieth-Century Argentina by

Description: SynopsisTaxation and Society in Twentieth-Century Argentinaprovides a historical narrative of the Argentine tax system in the twentieth century. In the 1930s the Argentine system was reformed and modernized and progressive levies were introduced. The new tax regime was accepted during the 1930s, yet it has unraveled since the mid-twentieth century due to the increased non-cooperative behavior of Argentine taxpayers.Taxation and Society in Twentieth-Century Argentinaexplores the reasons for the non-compliant behavior of Argentine taxpayers during the past century; it argues that the failure to build permanent trust between the state and the civil society, and the unraveling of confidence within Argentine society itself, account for the collapse of the progressive tax system."Product IdentifiersISBN-100230341268ISBN-139780230341265eBay Product ID (ePID)111815901Key DetailsAuthorJosé Antonio Sánchez RománNumber Of Pages245 pagesSeriesStudies of the AmericasFormatHardcoverPublication Date2012-05-31LanguageEnglishPublisherPalgrave MacmillanPublication Year2012Additional DetailsNumber of Volumes1 vol.Copyright Date2012IllustratedYesDimensionsWeight16 OzHeight0.9 In.Width5.6 In.Length9 In.Target AudienceGroupScholarly & ProfessionalClassification MethodLCCN2011-049330LC Classification NumberJA77GN562-GN564HD87-Dewey Decimal336.200982Dewey Edition23Reviews"An indispensable map and reference for future studies of this new Argentine enigma." - Hispanic American Historical Review "This is a carefully researched and exciting new book on an important topic that is of current, as well as historical, interest.
