Are The Imposed Principles Standard? A Review Of Imposing Standards: The North-South Dimension To Global Tax Politics By Martin Hearson, Opeyemi Bello
Are The Imposed Principles Standard? A Review Of Imposing Standards: The North-South Dimension To Global Tax Politics By Martin Hearson, Opeyemi Bello
Dalhousie Law Journal
The publication of Martin Hearson’s book, Imposing Standards: The North-South Dimension to Global Tax Politics, coincided with heated international discussions of the most substantial policy proposals in the field of international taxation in the last century.1 Hearson’s work provides insights on how the developed countries exerted control over the negotiations of the double taxation agreement (DTA) regime, which is the basis of the current international taxation framework. It explains how the negotiations resulted in a framework that works well for the developed countries, but does not substantially address the tax revenue needs of the developing countries. The publication of the …
International Vertical Equity, Adam H. Rosenzweig
International Vertical Equity, Adam H. Rosenzweig
Loyola University Chicago Law Journal
This Essay considers the role of equity in the international tax context. While much has been written about the importance of equity in the domestic context, the conversation around international tax has failed to recognize the importance of the concept of equity. While tax policy in the domestic context has historically prioritized equity over efficiency, tax policy in the international context has not equally prioritized equity, at least not in the same way. In particular, this Essay addresses this question by revisiting the classic and dominant theory of equity in international tax policy, inter-nation equity, and its traditional roots in …
Money That Costs Too Much: Regulating Financial Incentives, Kristen Underhill
Money That Costs Too Much: Regulating Financial Incentives, Kristen Underhill
Indiana Law Journal
Money may not corrupt. But should we worry if it corrodes? Legal scholars in a range of fields have expressed concern about “motivational crowding-out,” a process by which offering financial rewards for good behavior may undermine laudable social motivations, like professionalism or civic duty. Disquiet about the motivational impacts of incentives has now extended to health law, employment law, tax, torts, contracts, criminal law, property, and beyond. In some cases, the fear of crowding-out has inspired concrete opposition to innovative policies that marshal incentives to change individual behavior. But to date, our fears about crowding-out have been unfocused and amorphous; …

Legislative Foundation Of The United States' New International Tax System, Joshua D. Harms
Legislative Foundation Of The United States' New International Tax System, Joshua D. Harms
Seattle University Law Review
This Note begins with commentary on the United States’ former worldwide system of taxation. This system taxed multinational corporations’ offshore profits at the applicable domestic income tax rate less credits for taxes paid to foreign governments. This tax regime provided for the deferral of income tax due on the profits of multinational corporations’ overseas operations until the time of repatriation. This Note considers the issues inherent in this system and analyzes the repatriation tax holiday under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004. This holiday has been unanimously criticized by both sides of the political aisle and led to large …
After The European Commission Ordered Apple To Pay Back Taxes To Ireland: Ireland's Future In The New Global Tax Environment, Boyu Wang
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
On August 30, 2016, the European Commission ordered Ireland to collect $14.5 billion plus interest in unpaid taxes between 2003 and 2014 from Apple Inc. The European Union suggested that Ireland made "sweetheart deals" with Apple in exchange for bringing more jobs into the country and concluded that these deals constituted illegal tax benefits, contrary to the European Union's prohibitions against "state aid."
Profit shifting and transfer pricing manipulation dominate the analysis of the corporate tax structure in Ireland and its position in the context of global tax policy. This note explains the European Commission's Apple decision and analyzes how …

Citizenship Overreach, Peter J. Spiro
Citizenship Overreach, Peter J. Spiro
Michigan Journal of International Law
This Article examines international law limitations on the ascription of citizenship and national self-definition. The United States is exceptionally generous in its extension of citizenship. Alone among the major developed states, it extends citizenship to almost all persons in its territory at the moment of birth. This birthright citizenship is constitutionally protected under the Fourteenth Amendment. At the same time that it is generous at the front end, U.S. citizenship is sticky at the back. Termination of citizenship on the individual’s part can involve substantial fees. Expatriation is contingent on tax compliance and, in some cases, will implicate the recognition …
Inversions, Related Party Expenditures, And Source Taxation: Changing The Paradigm For The Taxation Of Foreign And Foreign-Owned Businesses, Julie A. Roin
BYU Law Review
The disconnect between the rules for the taxation of domestic businesses and foreign and foreign-owned businesses operating in the United States both diminishes the federal treasury and distorts taxpayer and business behavior. Yet bringing the sets of rules into closer coordination is no simple task. This Article examines many of the solutions proffered in the academic literature and details the difficulties and trade-offs that each entails.
Defining A Country's "Fair Share" Of Taxes, Adam H. Rosenzweig
Defining A Country's "Fair Share" Of Taxes, Adam H. Rosenzweig
Florida State University Law Review
The international tax regime is facing a defining moment. As stories of multinational companies expatriating and shifting income around the world with seeming impunity continue to emerge, the question of how to divide the international tax base among the countries of the world increasingly draws attention from policy-makers and academics. To date, however, the debate has tended to devolve into one over the two traditional tools used to divide worldwide tax base—transfer pricing and formulary apportionment. This Article demonstrates that such focus is misplaced on the instruments of dividing the worldwide tax base rather than on first principles. Instead, this …
Magnifying Deterrence By Prosecuting Professionals, Scott Schumacher
Magnifying Deterrence By Prosecuting Professionals, Scott Schumacher
Indiana Law Journal
This Article examines the recent series of criminal prosecutions against tax professionals and offshore bankers. These criminal cases, brought against the largest Swiss bank (UBS), the oldest Swiss bank (Wegelin), one of the largest accounting firms in the world (KPMG), as well as numerous lawyers and accountants, represent a dramatic shift for the U.S. Department of Justice. After decades of tolerating abusive tax shelters and tax haven banks, the government changed its policy. However, rather than indicting the individuals and corporations who invested in tax shelters or hid money in offshore accounts, the Justice Department indicted the lawyers, accountants, and …
A Shrouded Remedy: Increasing Transparency In The Irs Advance Pricing And Mutual Agreement Program By Releasing Redacted Advance Pricing Agreements And Increasing Administrative Disclosures, Blake L. Currey
San Diego Law Review
This Comment examines the current state of the IRS’s handling of pricing agreements within the APMA Program, arguing that the IRS should improve the Program by increasing its transparency to coincide with the additional resources being devoted to the Program, the IRS’s elevating transfer pricing enforcement, and the modern valuation challenges in transfer pricing. Part II further introduces transfer pricing and the arm’s length standard, and Part III examines the recent performance of the APMA Program. Part IV explores the Program’s troubling lack of transparency. Part V analyzes the legal and financial interests implicated by improving the Program’s transparency, arguing …
Nonrecourse Financing And Tax Shelter Abuse: The Crane Doctrine Before And After The At Risk Provisions, Michael Gurwitz
Nonrecourse Financing And Tax Shelter Abuse: The Crane Doctrine Before And After The At Risk Provisions, Michael Gurwitz
Golden Gate University Law Review
This Comment will examine the history of nonrecourse financing and tax shelters from the fabled Crane holding to the new reality of the ARP. This will be done by dividing the Comment into four parts. Part I will discuss the period preceding the passage of the Tax Reform Act of 1976, focusing on the Crane doctrine and subsequent attempts by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to define and limit the use of nonrecourse debt. Part II will highlight the factors that contributed to the growing abuse of tax shelters. Part III, in general terms, will examine the statutory scheme of …
