This second edition uses new data to reassess currency demand and the model approach to estimate the size of the shadow economy in 151 developing, transition, and OECD countries. This updated edition argues that during the 2000s the average size of the shadow economy varied from 19 per cent of GDP for OECD countries, to 30 per cent for transition countries, to 45 per cent for developing countries. It examines the causes and consequences of this development using an integrated approach to explain deviant behaviour that combines findings from economic, sociological, and psychological research. The authors suggest that increasing taxation and social security contributions, rising state regulatory activities, and the decline of the tax morale are all driving forces behind this growth, and they propose a reform of state public institutions in order to improve the dynamics of the official economy. 606 $aInformal sector (Economics) 606 $aBusiness enterprises$xCorrupt practices 606 $aCommercial crimes 606 $aTax evasion 606 $aIllegal aliens 606 $aWelfare fraud 606 $aFraud 615 0$aInformal sector (Economics) 615 0$aBusiness enterprises$xCorrupt practices. 615 0$aCommercial crimes. 615 0$aTax evasion. 615 0$aIllegal aliens. 615 0$aWelfare fraud. 615 0$aFraud. 676 $a330 686 $aBUS038000$2bisacsh 700 $aSchneider$b Friedrich$0241913 702 $aEnste$b Dominik 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819840403321 996 $aThe shadow economy$94183180 997 $aUNINA
