Peut-on contester son niveau d’imposition en arguant du caractère confiscatoire du prélèvement ? La réponse est aujourd’hui négative, du moins sous cette forme-là. L’impôt confiscatoire défini, hors du cadre de la sanction, comme un prélèvement dont la nature ou le niveau serait manifestement excessif, a pourtant connu une évolution récente florissante.Si le Conseil constitutionnel français a progressivement décidé de fonder l’exigence d’un impôt non-confiscatoire sur le principe d’égalité devant les charges publiques, il semble difficile de concevoir un impôt confiscatoire sans référence au droit de propriété, référence qui permettrait de donner toute sa vigueur à cette exigence. Quoi qu’il en soit, de notables évolutions sont à attendre en ce qui concerne l’exigence d’un impôt non-confiscatoire. Déjà ouvert aux praticiens par le biais de la question prioritaire de constitutionnalité, ce nouvel outil contentieux est incontestablement appelé à se développer.Cet ouvrage retrace la genèse de la notion d’impôt confiscatoire en droit français et la compare avec les évolutions de la jurisprudence internationale.Il tente de dégager un équilibre entre principe d’égalité devant l’impôt et droit de propriété. Il intéresse les cadres et dirigeants d’entreprise, les magistrats et fiscalistes.

"Having Too Much is the first academic volume devoted to limitarianism: the idea that the use of economic or ecosystem resources should not exceed certain limits. This concept has deep roots in economic and political thought. One can find similar statements of such limits in thinkers such as Plato, Aquinas, and Spinoza. But Having Too Much is the first time in contemporary political philosophy that limitarianism is explored at length and in detail. Bringing together in one place the best writing from key theorists of limitarianism, this book is an essential contribution to political philosophy in general, and theories of distributive justice in particular. Including some of the key published articles as well as new chapters, Having Too Much is necessary reading for scholars and students of political theory and philosophy, as well as anyone interested in questions of distributive justice" Publisher.

This book is about the distribution of wealth among people, described by statisticians as the size distribution of wealth, and the way that this distribution has changed over time. It provides answers to a host of important questions including, why is the distribution of wealth important and how can it be measured? How unequal is this distribution in practice, and has the degree of inequality changed over time? What factors determine the level of inequality? What criteria can be used to rank alternative distributions of wealth and what instruments are available to a government that wishes to change the distribution? How is the distribution of wealth related to the aggregate amount of wealth? The answers have many dimensions, notably economic, statistical, ethical, political, sociological and legal.

"Taxes on the wealthy are a topic sure to incite venomous rants from both right-wing and left-wing ideologues. The topic attracts conflicting interpretations and policy recommendations, and generates proposals for tax reform that consume political debate. All this activity takes place against an opaque backdrop of empirical evidence dealing with the distribution of wealth and income, and tax avoidance and tax evasion by corporations and wealthy individuals. Rethinking Wealth and Taxes explores these problems and considers the possibilities for increasing taxes on wealth to address the increasingly unequal distribution of wealth, and income. Concerned with exploring the implications of globalization for government revenue policy and increasing inequality in wealth and income, it identifies the connection between ongoing inequality and the ability of the wealthy to avoid income taxes by exploiting differential treatment of capital income and wage income. The author explores the various ways in which the emergence of globalization has impacted the traditional national model of raising income tax revenue. He then offers policy recommendations that shift government revenue sources to taxes that are difficult for the wealthy to avoid and that better capture the goals of vertical and horizontal tax equity. This book will appeal to those directly involved in industry and public policy and may be used in university courses at all levels in public finance, financial economics, actuarial science and management. It will also be of interest to research libraries, individuals working in government and readers in the general public curious about topics such as 'the one percent'"--
