Determinants of Tax Evasion

This book takes a novel approach to analysing tax evasion by integrating classic economic deterrence models with intrinsic motivation research. Bringing together these two so-far disparate strands of research, it will bridge economic and behavioural perspectives on tax compliance and offer future directions for research and policy applications.The book examines tax evasion through the combined lenses of external incentives (including audit probabilities, penalties, enforcement) and intrinsic motivations (such as tax morale and the exchange equity model). Addressing a crucial topic in public economics and finance, the book explores a range of social contexts in which tax behaviour manifests and integrates these fully into classic economic analyses of tax avoidance. This will be a fascinating read for scholars working across law, economics and behavioural science, as well as professionals in public policy.

This book examines the most controversial issues concerning the use of pre-drafted clauses in fine print, which are usually included in consumer contracts and presented to consumers on a take-it-or-leave-it basis.By applying a multi-disciplinary approach that combines consumer’s psychology and seller’s drafting power in the logic of efficiency and good faith, the book provides a fresh and unconventional analysis of the existing literature, both theoretical and empirical. Moving from the unconscionability doctrine, it criticizes (and in some cases refutes) its main conclusions based on criteria which are usually invoked to sustain the need for public intervention to protect consumers, and specifically related to Law (contract complexity), Psychology (consumer lack of sophistication criterion) and Economics (market structure criterion).It also analyzes the effects of different regulations, such as banning vexatious clauses or mandating disclosure clauses, showing that none of them protect consumers, but in fact prove to be harmful when consumers are more vulnerable, that is whenever sellers can exploit some degree of market power.In closing, the book combines these disparate aspects, arguing that the solution (if any) to the problem of consumer exploitation and market inefficiency associated with the use of contracts of adhesion in these contexts cannot be found in removing or prohibiting hidden clauses, but instead has to take into account the effects of these clauses on the contract as a whole.
