Global Taxation investigates the global transition to modern taxation from the 18th century to today. Modern taxation refers to the broad-based tax instruments that allowed for the emergence of big government as we know it today, including, most prominently, income taxes and general consumption taxes. The volume draws on a new historical dataset of tax introduction worldwide to map the global spread of modern taxes descriptively and to explore its correlates analytically. It makes four contributions to the literature. First, it corrects a pervasive Western bias in historical political economy and fiscal sociology. Most of this literature focuses heavily on the tax policy of advanced democracies in Europe. The chapters of this volume explore how far Western theories and insights travel to non-Western contexts. Second, the volume mitigates a recency bias in much of the macro-quantitative literature in comparative political economy and public finance. The chapters investigate whether insights travel across time from recent to more distant periods of observation. Third, the volume compensates for the substantive preoccupation of extant research with the personal income tax and the VAT by extending the analysis to other important tax instruments: the corporate income tax, the inheritance tax, non-VAT sales taxes, and social security contributions. Finally, the volume goes beyond the prevalent methodological nationalism in fiscal sociology and comparative political economy. It shows that non-sovereign tax introductions were common in colonial and imperial settings and compares analytically how the logic of these non-sovereign introductions differed from sovereign ones.

Als Rudolf Hilferding im Jahr 1910 vom "Finanzkapital" sprach, hatte er eine ausgeprägte Machtkonzentration von Bank- und Industriekapital unter Führung des Finanzkapitals vor Augen. Die heutige Rede vom Finanzkapital oder vom Finanzmarkt-Kapitalismus verdichtet sich zumeist mit einer anderen Zeitdiagnose. In deren Zentrum steht nicht der "organisierte Kapitalismus", sondern ein wettbewerbsorientiertes, globalisiertes und krisenanfälliges Wirtschaftssystem, das vielfältige Unsicherheiten und Ungleichheiten produziert.Im Zuge der Finanz-, Schulden- und Eurokrise hat sich diese Diskussion verallgemeinert und zugespitzt. Hiervon zeugen eine ganze Reihe jüngerer Untersuchungen: etwa eine OECD-Studie von 2011 "Divided we stand – why inequality keeps rising", ILO-Berichte zu Ungleichheiten in der Arbeitswelt, Publikationen der Europäischen Kommission zu ungleichen Lebenslagen und gesteigerten Armutsrisiken, Thomas Pikettys Analyse der zunehmenden Vermögens- und Einkommenskonzentration oder der jüngste Oxfam-Bericht "An economy for the 1%".Diese Ausgabe von POLITIKUM beleuchtet die Zusammenhänge, die zwischen der Finanzmarktentwicklung, den Krisenprozessen und der sozialen Ungleichheit bestehen. Gibt es strukturelle Ursachen der zunehmenden Ungleichheit? Wie wirken sich die Krise und das Krisenmanagement verteilungspolitisch aus? Wer trägt die Kosten? Gibt es neben den Krisenverlierern auch Krisengewinner? Welche wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Effekte sind mit den politischen Strategien, nicht zuletzt mit der Geldpolitik der EZB oder der Austeritätspolitik, verbunden? Wie könnten politische Alternativen aussehen? Und verändern sich im Verlauf der Krise die politischen Machtverhältnisse und Muster einer – wohlfahrtsstaatlich gestützten – Legitimation von Herrschaft?
