    Year:4, Volume:4, Number:7 / 2020 DOI Number: 10.30520/tjsosci.655840 SOCIO-ECONOMIC VARIABLES AND TAX COMPLIANCE IN THE SCOPE OF FISCAL SOCIOLOGY: A RESEARCH ON THE EUROPEAN UNION AND OECD* Rana DAYIOĞLU ERUL** ABSTRACT Fiscal sociology investigates financial events from a sociological point of view and explores the effects of tax and spending policies on society and also the role and influence of the elements that constitute society in defining these policies. As the tax system and policies of each country reflect the characteristics of the country's social, political, cultural and economic structure, tax systems differ according to the characteristics of the structure of the society. Tax systems that are in line with the social structure ensure that tax compliance is achieved at a high level. From this point of view, aim of the study is defined as investigating the level of interaction of the structural elements with tax compliance. In this respect, tax compliance and socio-economic variables that affect the structure of the society are included in the study and they are analyzed using panel data analysis covering the 2008-2016 time period by making comparisons between the European Union and OECD countries. As a result of the analysis, the main point in increasing tax compliance is that the tax policies are adopted by the society, for this reason it is concluded that implementations that reflect the society need to be taken as a basis while making the regulations on the tax system. Key Words: Fiscal sociology, tax compliance, panel data analysis, socio-economic variables.

  • Redistribution & the New Fiscal Sociology: Race and The
    Redistribution & the New Fiscal Sociology: Race and the Progressivity of State and Local Taxes Rourke O’Brien, Harvard University1 Abstract: States redistribute wealth through two mechanisms: spending and taxation. Yet, efforts to delineate the determinants of redistribution often focus exclusively on social spending. This article aims to explore how one important determinant of redistributive social spending—racial composition—influences preferences for and the structure of tax systems. First, using fixed- effects regression analyses and unique data on state and local tax systems, we demonstrate that changes in racial composition are associated with changes in the progressivity of state and local tax systems. Specifically, between 1995 and 2007, an increase in the percentage of Latinos in a state is associated with more regressive state and local tax systems as well as higher tax burdens on the poor. Second, using evidence from a nationally representative survey experiment, we find that individual preferences for taxation are actively shaped by the changing racial composition of the community. Finally, we show that in-group preference—or feeling “solidarity” with neighbors—is a key mechanism through which racial threat shapes preferences for taxation. By providing empirical evidence that racial composition drives preferences for taxation at the individual level as well as the structure of tax systems at the state and local levels, this paper serves as an important contribution to our understanding of welfare state policy and the determinants of redistribution as well as the broader project of the new fiscal sociology. 1 Direct all correspondence to Rourke O’Brien, Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies ([email protected]).

  • The Classics in Economic Sociology
    I The Classics in Economic Sociology There exists a rich and colorful tradition of economic sociology, which roughly began around the turn of the twentieth century and continues till today. This tradition has generated a number of helpful concepts and ideas as well as interesting research results, which this and the following chapter seek to briefly present and set in perspective. Economic soci- ology has peaked twice since its birth: in 1890–1920, with the founders of sociology (who were all interested in and wrote on the economy), and today, from the early 1980s and onward. (For the history of economic sociology, see Swedberg 1987, 1997; Gislain and Steiner 1995). A small number of important works in economic sociology—by economists as well as sociologists—was produced during the time between these two periods, from 1920 to the mid-1980s. The main thesis of this chapter, and of this book as a whole, is as follows: in order to produce a powerful economic sociology we have to combine the analysis of economic interests with an analysis of social relations. From this perspective, institutions can be understood as dis- tinct configurations of interests and social relations, which are typically of such importance that they are enforced by law. Many of the classic works in economic sociology, as I shall also try to show, hold a similar view of the need to use the concept of interest in analyzing the economy. Since my suggestion about the need to combine interests and social relations deviates from the existing paradigm in economic sociology, a few words will be said in the next section about the concept of interest as it has been used in social theory.

  • Mind, Society, and Fiscal Sociology Richard E. Wagner Department Of
    States and the Crafting of Souls: Mind, Society, and Fiscal Sociology Richard E. Wagner Department of Economics, 3G4 George Mason University Fairfax, VA 22030 USA [email protected] http://mason.gmu.edu/~rwagner Abstract For the most part, the theory of public finance follows economic theory in taking individual preferences as given. The resulting analytical agenda revolves around the ability of different fiscal institutions to reflect and aggregate those preferences into collective outcomes. This paper explores the possibility that to some extent fiscal institutions can influence and shape what are commonly referred to as preferences. Statecraft thus becomes necessarily a branch of soulcraft, in that the state is inescapably involved in shaping preferences through its impact on the moral imagination, and not just in reflecting or representing them. This paper first explores some general conceptual issues and then examines some particular illustrations. Keywords: endogenous preferences, fiscal institutions, constitutional economics, public enterprise States and the Crafting of Souls: Mind, Society, and Fiscal Sociology For the most part, the theory of public finance follows economic theory in taking individual preferences as given. The resulting analytical agenda revolves around the ability of different fiscal institutions to reflect and aggregate those preferences into collective outcomes. This paper explores the possibility that to some extent fiscal institutions, and the fiscal practice that those institutions generate, can influence and shape what are commonly referred to as preferences. In standard public finance, the activities of the state simply represent offerings by alternative vendors to those that exist in private markets. Hence, shoppers buy some things from public goods stores and other things from private goods stores.

  • Economic Sociology in Israel
    ASA SECTION NEWSLETTER VOLUME XY, ISSUE 2, SPRING 2016 ECONOMIC SOCIOLOGY IN ISRAEL Circuits of Global and Local Knowledge By: Oleg Komlik Economic sociology in Israel is thriving. After years of gradual disciplinary evolution and scholarly elaboration, Israeli economic sociology has become soundly estab- lished. This essay aims to explain the emergence of this field of research and to profile the contemporary eco- nomic sociology in Israel. Our point of departure lies in the contention that Israeli economic sociology - as an umbrella term for the variety of socio-political studies of economic organizations, in- stitutions and processes – has been constituting from the 1980s onward in the spirit of two concurrently unfolding academic trends: on the global level, the stimulating re- vival and remarkable spring of economic sociology in the US and Europe, and on the local level, the growing influ- ence of critical sociological approaches on Israeli sociol- ogy as a whole. Decades after the establishment-oriented structural-functionalist sociology ceded the economy as a topic of inquiry to economics and produced papers echoing the dominant ideology and government poli- cies, researchers associated with different streams of critical sociology, especially interested in elites, power and political economy of labor, have begun to problematize notions of economic phenomena which for years were conceptually simplified and (un)intentionally omitted. Finally, the institutionalization of econom- ic sociology was intensified by the transformative and detrimental consequences of the Neoliberal conquest of the Israeli society and polity during the 1990s (e.g. Shafir and Peled 2002; Shalev 1998). In 1992, after returning from Columbia University where he obtained his PhD, Ilan Talmud pioneered the first courses in ‘new economic sociology’ in Israel - “Social capital” and “State and entrepreneurship” (see also Talmud 1992, 1994; Burt and Talmud 1993).

Our canonical texts describe taxation as one of the most important factors that can foster or impede capitalist economic development and the reproduction of class inequality (Marx & Engels 2012 [1848], Weber 1978). Sociologists today regularly assign our students nineteenth-century texts that recommend progressive taxation as a means of “revolutionizing the mode of production” (Marx & Engels 2012 [1848], p. 60) or ameliorating the “abnormal” division of labor (Durkheim 1984 [1893], p. 310). Yet few of us train our students to follow these leads. It is not an exaggeration to say that the fields of development studies and stratification research ignored taxation altogether as they developed in twentieth-century American sociology (cf. Grusky 2008). This neglect not only severed sociology from some of its theoretical traditions, it also marginalized sociological discourse about poverty and inequality by cutting it off from the most salient policy debates about these issues in our time. Our goal in this review is to introduce sociologists to important contributions of the recent empirical literature on taxation.

  • The Economic Sociology of Capitalism
    1 THE ECONOMIC SOCIOLOGY OF CAPITALISM: AN INTRODUCTION AND AGENDA by Richard Swedberg Cornell University [email protected] revised version July 27, 2003 2 Capitalism is the dominant economic system in today’s world, and there appears to be no alternatives in sight.1 Socialism, its main competitor, has been weakened immeasurably by the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s. Where socialism still prevails, such as in the People’s Republic of China, serious attempts are made to turn the whole economic system in a capitalist direction so that it will operate in a more efficient manner. “It doesn’t matter if the cat is white or black as long as it catches mice”, to cite Deng Xiaping (e.g. Becker 2000:52-3). While the superiority of capitalism as an economic system and growth machine has fascinated economists for centuries, this has not been the case with sociologists. For sociologists capitalism has mainly been of interest for its social effects – how it has led to class struggle, anomie, inequality and social problems in general. Capitalism as an economic system in its own right has been of much less interest. Some of this reaction has probably to do with the unfortunate division of labor that developed between economists and sociologists in the 19th century: economists studied the economy, and the sociologists society minus the economy. In this respect, as in so many others, sociology has essentially been a “left-over science” (Wirth 1948). 1 For inspiration to write this chapter I thank Victor Nee and for comments and help with information Mabel Berezin, Patrik Aspers, Filippo Barbera, Mark Chavez, Philippe Steiner and two anonymous reviewers.

The paper adopts an interdisciplinary approach that blends history, political economy, politics, sociology, social philosophy, and ethics. The article demonstrates how old and new strands of fiscal sociology and Veblen’s economic sociology can be employed to develop a comprehensive understanding of history, present conditions and future of neoliberalism as well as its current crisis. The paper concludes that fiscal sociology and Veblen’s sociological and critical institutional economics have the great potential to develop new insights into critical social economics and the fiscal crisis of the state.
