The article is a response to Gabriel Zucman's paper 'Globalisation, taxation and inequality'.
In his paper ‘Globalisation, taxation and inequality’ in this issue, Gabriel Zucman argues that the current tax system is not appropriate for our times. In particular, the system heavily taxes labour and consumption and largely exempts capital and capital income from taxation. This tax structure is at odds with rising inequality and the high capital share of income for the rich.
