Open Research Seminar
Subject: Repeated Tax Amnesties
Onursal Bagirgan, a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, will present the research paper "Repeated Tax Amnesties". The author develops a model of strategic interaction between the government and the taxpayers. In the framework, the self-fulfilling characteristic of tax amnesties may lead to sub-optimal outcomes. The model predicts factors that make an economy more vulnerable to consecutive tax amnesties. The author uses US state-level data to test model prediction.
