Abstract

In Taxing the Rich: A History of Fiscal Fairness in the United States and Europe, authors Kenneth Scheve and David Stasavage seek to expand our historical appreciation of the political economy of taxation and, more specifically, the taxation of the wealthiest in society. Christopher May does not hesitate in recommending this accessible and clearly argued book to those looking to better understand current debates surrounding taxation.
