In turn, the book addresses a number of moral questions in connection with taxes, concerning such topics as: • the nature of government • the relation between government (the state) and its subjects or citizens • the moral justification of taxes• the link between property and taxation• tax planning, evasion and avoidance • corporate social responsibility• the use of coercive power in collecting taxes and enforcing tax laws • ethical standards for tax advisors • tax payer rights • the balance between individual rights to liberty and privacy, and government compliance and information requirements • the moral justification underlying the efforts of legislators and policymakers to restructure society and steer individual and corporate behavior.

This book discusses the legal issues arising from the search for certainty in the relationship between Community law and direct tax law. In addition, it contains an in-depth analysis of the CILFIT doctrine in action and its demand for legal certainty. By looking at both how the case law of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in the area of direct taxation fits the CILFIT criteria (ECJ, 6 October 1982, case 283/81, Srl CILFIT and Gavardo SpA), and how such criteria are complied with by national courts, the book reviews and discusses the application in the field of direct taxation of the criteria put forward by the ECJ. The book highlights some of the current challenges faced by the EU judicial system in view of the expansion of EU law and its decentralized application at national level.
