How Hard Can This Be? The Dearth Of U.S. Tax Treaties With Latin America, Patricia A. Brown
How Hard Can This Be? The Dearth Of U.S. Tax Treaties With Latin America, Patricia A. Brown
University of Miami Law Review
The United States has fewer tax treaties with countries in Latin America and the Caribbean than the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain and even China have with such countries. After first describing ways in which tax treaties reduce barriers to cross-border trade and investment, this Article considers in turn various possible explanations for this situation. It examines, and rejects, the hypothesis that Latin American countries are reluctant to enter into tax treaties in general. It then considers, and rejects, the possibility that Latin American countries are opposed to in-creased trade and investment from the United States in particular. It then …

The Mapmaker’S Dilemma In Evaluating High-End Inequality, Daniel Shaviro
The Mapmaker’S Dilemma In Evaluating High-End Inequality, Daniel Shaviro
University of Miami Law Review
The last thirty years have witnessed rising income and wealth concentration among the top 0.1% of the population, leading to intense political debate regarding how, if at all, policymakers should respond. Often, this debate emphasizes the tools of public economics, and in particular optimal income taxation. However, while these tools can help us in evaluating the issues raised by high-end inequality, their extreme reductionism—which, in other settings, often offers significant analytic payoffs—here proves to have serious drawbacks. This Article addresses what we do and don’t learn from the optimal income tax literature regarding high-end inequality, and what other inputs might …
Dodging The Taxman: Why The Treasury’S Anti-Abuse Regulation Is Unconstitutional, Linda D. Jellum
Dodging The Taxman: Why The Treasury’S Anti-Abuse Regulation Is Unconstitutional, Linda D. Jellum
University of Miami Law Review
To combat abusive tax shelters, the Department of the Treasury promulgated a general anti-abuse regulation applicable to all of subchapter K of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The Treasury targeted subchapter K because unique aspects of the partnership tax laws—including its aggregate-entity dichotomy—foster creative tax manipulation. In the anti-abuse regulation, the Treasury attempted to “codify” existing judicially-created anti-abuse doctrines, such as the business-purpose and economic-substance doctrines. Also, and more surprisingly, the Treasury directed those applying subchapter K to use a purposivist approach to interpretation and to reject textualism.
In this article, I demonstrate that the Treasury exceeded both its …

Section 356(A)(2): A Study Of Uncertainty In Corporate Taxation, William J. Rands

This article examines the conflicting interpretations of this section and offers suggested changes in the law. The article also reviews the performance of all three branches of government in developing tax law.
The United States Tax Court-Should Discovery Be Expanded?, William H. Newton Iii
The United States Tax Court-Should Discovery Be Expanded?, William H. Newton Iii
University of Miami Law Review
This article examines the methods and scope of discovery available to the taxpayer involved in tax litigation in the Tax Court, the Court of Claims and the federal district courts. After finding that discovery in the Tax Court is significantly more restricted than in the other two available forums, the author reviews the results of a recent survey of tax practitioners' views of discovery in that court and concludes that expansion is necessary.
