Extended program
The program has an introductory part that inserts the phenomenon of taxation in the context of the general theory of the state and in the evolution that the institutions and the socio-economic context have undergone over time since the constitution of the modern state. The main aspects of the general theory of the effects of taxation will then be outlined in terms of efficiency and distribution (translation, amortization, removal, evasion and avoidance, etc.). We will then move to to the analysis of the individual types of tax: income tax in the various variants focusing on the SHS model and the problems it poses for concrete implementation and the problem of progressivity (with related issues linked to floating income and the choice of the tax unit) and so on); asset taxation; consumption taxation. Finally, issues relating to the vertical distribution of the power to tax will be discussed, with a nod to the main issues of international taxation.
