Descriptif
The aim of this course is to present the issues associated with tax fraud from both a budgetary and financial point of view and from a political and democratic point of view. By using and abusing legal loopholes, tax fraud threatens the rule of law. Governments must find ways of ensuring that the rule of law prevails over the lure.
After a brief introduction and presentation of the main actors in this field, the seminar will be divided into three parts: (i) tax fraud as a breach to fiscal justice; (ii) tax fraud as a threat to public order; (iii) foreseeable solutions.
The European Union will be the main area of analysis, although extra-European comparisons may be made during this seminar.
Pré-requis
No knowledge of tax law or public finance is required for this seminar.
Mode de validation
The students will be subject to a weekly simplified moot court (30%), a written mid-term exam (30%) and a final exam (30%). The final grade will be adjusted according to the students' commitment and motivation (10%).
