Onuncu sempozyuma kadar “Maliye Eğitimi Sempozyumu” ve sonraki yıllarda “Türkiye Maliye Sempozyumu” adıyla düzenlenen sempozyum, üniversitelerden akademisyenler ile çeşitli kamu kurumlarından bürokratların bir araya geldikleri ve maliye alanında ön plana çıkan konuları tartıştıkları bir platform haline dönüşmüştür. Günümüzde dünyada düzenlenen sempozyumlar ve kongrelerin şekil değiştirmesiyle birlikte Maliye Sempozyumunun organizasyonunda ve içeriğinde de bazı değişikliklerin yapılması zarureti doğmuştur. Tek konuyu ele alan bir düzenleme yerine maliyenin birçok konusunun eşzamanlı oturumlarda tartışıldığı bir organizasyon haline gelen Maliye Sempozyumu 2017 yılından itibaren “Uluslararası Maliye Sempozyumu / Türkiye” ismini alarak kapılarını uluslararası katılımcılara da açmıştır. Böylece Uluslararası Maliye Sempozyumu / Türkiye, ülkemizdeki akademisyen ve bürokratlar ile dünyanın çeşitli ülkelerindeki maliye bilimi insanlarını bir araya getirerek uluslararası düzeyde işbirliği ve bilgi paylaşımına zemin oluşturmayı ve evrensel bilgi üretimine katkı sağlamayı amaçlamıştır. 32. Uluslararası Maliye Sempozyumu / Türkiye (International public Finance Conference / Turkey) Uludağ Üniversitesi İ.İ.B.F. Maliye Bölümünün organizasyonunda 10 – 14 Mayıs 2017 tarihleri arasında Antalya’da gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sempozyum Bilim Kurulu tarafından uygun görülen 96 bildiri katılımcılar tarafından ve 3 bildiri de davetli konuşmacılar tarafından sunulmuştur. Dopdolu geçen sempozyum organizasyonundan sonra tam metin bildiriler Haziran 2017 sonuna kadar yazarlardan istenmiştir. Gönderilen tam metin eserler, katılımcıların isteğine bağlı olarak aşağıdaki yayın çeşitlerinden bir tanesinde yayınlanmak üzere sürece alınmıştır: 1) Uluslararası alan indekslerinde taranan dergi statüsündeki “International Journal of Public Finance – IJPF”da makale olarak, 2) Tanınmış uluslararası bir yayınevi statüsünde olan Peter Lang Publishing tarafından basılan ve ISBN numarası alınmış bir editörlü kitapta bölüm olarak, 3) Tanınmış ulusal bir yayınevi statüsünde olan Ekin Basım Yayın Dağıtım tarafından basılan ve ISBN numarası alınmış bir editörlü kitapta bölüm olarak. Maliye Araştırmaları - 1 v Yazarları tarafından tanınmış ulusal bir yayınevi tarafından basılan editörlü kitapta yer alması uygun görülen bildirilere bu kitapta yer verilmiştir. Sempozyum sürecinde genişletilmiş özetleri Bilim Kurulu tarafından değerlendirilen ve uygun görülen bu bildirilerin tam metinleri editörler tarafından gözden geçirilmiş, gerekli düzeltmeler yazarlardan talep edilerek düzeltilmiştir. Bu süreci tamamlanan tam metin bildiriler yazar sayadlarının alfabetik sırasına göre bu kitapta yer almıştır. Sempozyumun yeni formatıyla birlikte, sadece bazı bildirilerin bu kitapta yer almasından dolayı Sempozyum Bilim Kurulu tarafından kitaba “Maliye Araştırmaları” şeklinde ayrı bir isim verilmesi uygun görülmüştür. Bundan sonra yapılacak Uluslararası Maliye Sempozyumu/ Türkiye’de sunulan bildirilerden tanınmış ulusal bir yayınevi tarafından basılan editörlü kitapta yer alacak bildiriler de bu başlık altında seri halinde yayınlanacaktır. Bu nedenle kitabın ismi “Maliye Araştırmaları - 1” olarak belirlenmiştir. Kitabın bu haliyle yayınlanmasını gerçekleştiren Ekin Basım Yayın Dağıtım’ın sahibi Sn. Mehmet OYMAK ve kitabevi çalışanlarına teşekkür ederiz.

As VAT leads to fragmentation or division in the chain of economic transactions from producer to consumer, it is susceptible to fraud, especially carousel fraud Fraudsters’ persistence in finding ways around the precautions taken has led to the invention of carbon carousel fraud, enabled by the existence of uninspected markets of carbon credits with high trade volume. Due to the destination principle adopted in Turkey, a transition to the origin model, which is expected to create positive outcomes in Turkey’s European Union accession and support the single market principle with full harmonization of VAT, will restore the tax harmonization symmetry disrupted by the destination model, and the VAT chain will not be interrupted.

JEL Classification Codes: K34,H26,F18. Özet Katma Değer Vergisi, Avrupa Birliği Üye Devletleri başta olmak üzere, uluslararası ticarette vergileme açısından önemli bir konuma sahiptir. Ancak Katma Değer Vergisinin üreticiden tüketiciye olan ekonomik işlemler zincirinde, parçalanma veya bölünmeye sebebiyet vermesi, Katma Değer Vergisini başta döngüsel kaçakçılık olmak üzere çeşitli illegal faaliyetlere karşı savunmasız bırakmıştır. Ayrıca kaçakçıların alınan önlemlere rağmen, sürekli başka yolları bulma arayışı da devam etmiştir. Bu durum ise, onları son zamanlarda emisyon azaltım konusunda finans aracı olan ve karbon kredileri üzerinden yapılan Döngüsel Karbon Kaçakçılığına yönlendirmiş; yüksek ticaret hacmine sahip karbon kredilerinde denetimsiz pazarları doğurmasına yol açmıştır. Ülkemizde benimsenen varış ilkesi sebebiyle Avrupa Birliği sürecinde olan Türkiye açısından da olumlu sonuçlar doğurması beklenen ve Avrupa Birliği içerisinde Katma Değer Vergisinde tam uyumun sağlanması ile birlikte Tek Pazar ilkesine de etkinlik kazandırabilecek menşe (çıkış) ilkesine geçilmesi, varış ilkesinin bozduğu vergi uyum simetrisini yeniden sağlayabilecek, Katma Değer Vergisi zinciri böylece kırılmayacak ve sonuçta döngüsel karbon kaçakçılığının

Egalitarian Liberalism And Economic Freedom Abstract This dissertation considers three major challenges to egalitarian liberal institutions made by classical liber- als: that egalitarian liberal institutions involve too much coercive interference with individual economic decisions, that free markets tend to do better at rewarding people on the basis of their economic choices, and that only by recognizing full liberal rights of ownership can a society best promote a stable property regime consistent with our pre-political conventions of ownership. Each of these objections fails, but they point to an underlying concern that egalitarian liberal institutions fail to adequately protect economic freedom. The dissertation then develops and defends a conception of economic freedom that is reflected in egalitar- ian liberal institutions. Economic freedom depends on the quality and availability of options individuals have in markets,

In another work (Boettke and Marciano 2017), we have shown why Buchanan’s article should not be read as an answer or a complement of Charles Tiebout’s “A Pure Teory of Local Public Expenditures” (1956). Our objective is now to shed as much light as possible on why Buchanan came to write about clubs. From this per- spective, a point of reference is given by Richard Wagner: Buchanan started to discuss the provision and fnancing a local public good— more precisely, a swimming pool—with students in the fall of 1963 (2017, pp.

  • Musgrave, Samuelson, and the Crystallization of the Standard Rationale for Public Goods
    Musgrave, Samuelson, and the crystallization of the standard rationale for public goods Maxime Desmarais-Tremblay1 Abstract This paper provides a narrative of the emergence of the standard textbook definition of public goods. It focuses on Richard A. Musgrave’s contribution in defining public goods as non-rival and non-excludable—from 1937 to 1973. Although Samuelson’s mathematical definition is generally used in models of public goods, the qualitative understanding of the specificity of pure public goods owes a lot to Musgrave. I argue that the evolution of Musgrave’s writings on public goods reflects his intention to Justify his view of the role of the state in providing goods and services to the citizens with an argument that would be convincing to the community of American economists in the middle of the twentieth century. Musgrave’s definition highlights his life-long concern for a comprehensive, realistic and useful normative theory of the public sector. Keywords: Richard A. Musgrave; Paul A. Samuelson; social goods; public goods; non-rivalry; non- exclusion; free riding. JEL Codes: H41, B29, B31 1 [email protected].

  • Justifying the Lindahl Solution As an Outcome of Fair Cooperation
    JUSTIFYING THE LINDAHL SOLUTION AS AN OUTCOME OF FAIR COOPERATION WOLFGANG BUCHHOLZ WOLFGANG PETERS CESIFO WORKING PAPER NO. 1536 CATEGORY 1: PUBLIC FINANCE SEPTEMBER 2005 An electronic version of the paper may be downloaded • from the SSRN website: www.SSRN.com • from the CESifo website: www.CESifo-group.de CESifo Working Paper No. 1536 JUSTIFYING THE LINDAHL SOLUTION AS AN OUTCOME OF FAIR COOPERATION Abstract The Lindahl equilibrium is mostly motivated by a rather artificial price mechanism. Even though the analogy to a competitive market has been emphasised by Lindahl himself his approach does not directly explain the normative ideas, which are behind this concept. In the present paper we therefore show how the Lindahl equilibrium can be deduced from some simple equity axioms that in particular are related to the equal sacrifice principle and a non- envy postulate as norms for distributional equity. Fairness among agents with different preferences is taken into account by considering their marginal willingnesses to pay as virtual prices. In this way it might also become more understandable why the Lindahl solution can be perceived as an outcome of fair cooperation. JEL Code: C78, D63, H41.
