With an unprecedented ability to adjust the scale, character, and location of their global operations, international corporations have become increasingly sensitive to the kind and degree of tax obligations imposed on them by both host and home countries. Tax rules affect the volume of foreign direct investment, corporate borrowing, transfer pricing, dividend and royalty payments, and research and development. National governments that tax the profits of international firms face important challenges in designing tax policies to attract them. This collection examines the global ramifications of tax policies, offering up-to-date, theoretically innovative, and empirically sound perspectives on a problem of immense significance to future economic growth around the globe.NBER-Conference ReportInvestments, ForeignCongressesInvestments, ForeignTaxationCongressestaxes, tax, global, corporate, corporation, academic, scholarly, research, capital, money, financial, finance, economy, economics, economic, currency, wealth, income, national, government, policy, policymaker, taxation, pricing, borrowing, debt, foreign, investment, price, policies, developing, country, trade, stock, prices, multinational.Investments, ForeignInvestments, ForeignTaxation336.24/3Hines James R.Jr.,1958-1484669MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782995403321International taxation and multinational activity3703436UNINA01219nam 2200397 450 991079299470332120230809224121.01-78714-757-6(CKB)3710000001363488(MiAaPQ)EBC4814022(EXLCZ)99371000000136348820170602h20172017 uy 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierFrom humility to hubris among scholars and politicians exploring expressions of self-esteem and achievement /by Robert A.
