Optimal taxation and the new political economy

Cel



The purpose of this thesis is to integrate political economy concepts into optimal taxation models. A first interesting issue arises when decision are made according to some voting procedure. The existing literature is essentially of positive nature and leaves out the important issue of the design of the political process itself. Normative issues reemerge when one considers the problem of constitutional design, that is the stage at which a society decides upon the rules according to which decisions will be reached in the future. This problem is of crucial relevance for the ongoing European integration process where many issues of << constitutional design >> are still outstanding.
The second relevant concept is the possibility of corruption in the decision process. I would like to integrate this phenomena into normative models of optimal taxation and redistribution. Once again, this problem is particularly relevant for the stage of constitutional design and, hence, for the European integration process, in particular as far as the design of (interregional) redistributive policies is concerned.
