A historical review of the economy-based theory of taxation in China——The difference between“economy-centrism”and“plan-centrism”

The level of tax burden in a country should be determined by the condition of its economy,but it also has impact on economic development.Taxation and budget reform was discussed at the 3rd Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee,and the new reform was introduced.Under the new thinking,budget review is no long be limited to balanced budget and the size of the deficit but will also include projected expenditure and policy.This means the change from“making tax plans“to”setting tax expected targets”.The idea of“economic determination of taxes”has left a prominent mark in the history of taxation theories in China going back thousands of years.In particular,taxation theorists have always stressed the need to protect and nurture tax sources.For example,Confucius stressed“keeping tax burdens light and allowing the people to be rich”,Mencius similarly advocated for the importance of enriching the people,Xunzi,for his part,argued for the need to levy taxes in accordance with the law,Wang Anshi believed that people can only be taxed if they are first allowed to earn an income,and Qiu Jun promoted the idea of“less taxes,more revenues”,and many others.All these ideas in the history are rich sources of reference for those trying to reform the taxation system today in China.

Determinants of Tax Evasion Intention using the Theory of Planned Behavior and the Mediation role of Taxpayer Egoism

This study evaluates the mediation role of taxpayer egoism in the nexus between tax evasion intention(TEI)and its determinants.TEI is measured as a composite variable(for mediation in the PROCESS macro)and then as a latent variable(for mediation in Analysis of Moment Structure Software AMOS).Further,the stringent assumptions of mediation analysis by Baron and Kenny(Strategic,and Statistical Considerations 51:1173-1182,1986)are challenged via assertions by Hayes(Introduction to Mediation,Moderation and Conditional Process Analysis:A Regression-Based Approach,The Guilford Press,2018).The proxies for TEI are the respondents'ethical attitudes toward taxation Determinants of tax evasion intention are grouped into perceived behavioral control attitude and subjective norms as per theory of planned behavior(TPB)and extant literature.The detailed variables adopted from the literature include tax awareness,tax information,tax complexity,perceived power of authority,tax morals,tax fairness,and trust in government.A totalof 151 responses were collected Mediation analysis was done via bootstrapping in the PROCESS macro and through AMOS.A plethora of studies focus on determinants of tax evasion,tax compliance and their intentions However,none combine analysis via the two tools highlighted.Further,few challenge the old way of conducting mediation analysis The data provide statistical support for egoism's mediation in the effect of four determinants on tax evasion intention.It further confirms that many of the old preconditions for mediation are unnecessary given modern-day bootstrapping analysis.Insight into determinants of TEI and egoism have been provided However,this study uses cross-sectional data Future studies must use longitudinal data or experimental manipulation to infer more specific effects.
