【Course Objectives】

The objective of this course is the systematic study of the corporation tax and consumption tax (also called a value-added tax in scholarly circles) which are imposed on enterprises. Students will study tax avoidance. Students will study international taxation.

【Course Contents】

The classes will cover Chapter 5 (corporation tax), Chapter 6 (consumption tax), Chapter 8 (international taxation), and Chapters 2 through 3 (interpretation of tax law) in the textbook.
Studying tax law has significance for two major reasons. There is the practical aspect and the fairness aspect. First, students are expected to have learned several legal forms in classes of Civil Law, Commercial Law, and etc., and the tax burden can be increased or decreased depending on the selected legal form. From the standpoint of the taxpayer, students have to learn how to not carry an excessive tax burden, and from the standpoint of the tax agency, students have to learn what the taxpayers are thinking when they try to avoid taxation. This practical aspect is primarily concerned with interpretation and implementation.
Secondly, tax law also includes the philosophical inquiry how distributive fairness of tax burden is approached. Lawyers do not frequently state concrete value judgments about what is fair, but students should understand the matters under consideration in debating fairness when they are in charge of deciding policy in the future. The fairness aspect is primarily concerned with legislative and political discussion.
