Although men and women are typically taxed under the same rules, their different social and economic characteristics (e.g. income levels or labour force participation) mean that the tax system can inadvertently contribute to gender inequalities in society. Understanding and improving the impact of taxes on gender equality is a key dimension that governments need to consider as part of tax design to support inclusive growth.

"This book is about the operation of equality and discrimination law in times of crisis. It aims to understand: (i) how existing inequalities are exacerbated in crises; and (ii) whether equality law has tools to understand and address this contingency. Experience during the Covid-19 crisis shows that the pandemic has acted as a catalyst for 'exponential inequalities' related to racism, xenophobia, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ageism, ableism etc, but the field of equality law - which is meant to address such discrimination or inequality - has had little of immediate relevance in mitigating these exponential inequalities. This is despite the fact that countries like the UK have a rather recent and state-of-the-art legislation in the field, viz. the Equality Act 2010. Thus, equality law seems to be going through a crisis of its own. This book brings together contributions from leading experts in the field, revealing the crisis in equality law through the study of the operation of equality law during crises. The chapters are drawn from a range of interdisciplinary and comparative perspectives and illuminate the structural and conceptual, as well as, the practical and doctrinal difficulties in equality law in addressing exponential inequalities in hard times. The book ultimately aims to propose constructive possibilities from within the extant normative and doctrinal mores of equality law which can be productively harnessed to address exponential inequalities"--
