Although a genuine European tax hardly exists as such, the EC policy of aligning national taxes & tax policies insofar as is necessary for a common market affects taxation & tax law in all Member States. European Tax Law systematically surveys the EC tax rules that arise from this policy & their implications. It provides a detailed discussion of European integration & Community tax harmonisation policy, with practical analysis of all the relevant Community tax rules, in force & pending. The book's clear, straightforward coverage includes the following: . tax measures already taken at the Community level & their legal basis; . the current state of positive harmonisation as manifested in EC regulations & directives; . the effect of 'negative integration' (such as prohibition of discrimination) that limits Member States' freedom to arrange their own national tax systems; . the surprising effect of national habits & couleur locale; & . the consequences of general (non-fiscal) Community law for national tax laws as it emerges in the case law of the European Court of Justice. European Tax Law includes an extensive index & a table of cases for easy access to information. Practitioners, academics, & advanced students of tax law & EC law will value the lucid, ordered, & comprehensive coverage of this resource.
