Building on themes introduced in Political Philosophy and Taxation (Springer, 2022), which focused on secular perspectives, this sequel shifts attention to the contributions of Christian thinkers from Medieval times to the present. The book explores key questions surrounding the role of the state, the relationship between the state and its subjects, the moral right to tax, and what constitutes fairness in taxation. It investigates how Christian ethical teachings have shaped Western political philosophy, particularly in the context of distributive justice, and evaluates their relevance in contemporary discussions. By analyzing the intersection of theology, ethics, and political philosophy, this book provides a deeper understanding of how Christian traditions have influenced historical notions of justice, fairness, and governance. It offers insights into how these principles can inform modern policy debates and ethical considerations in taxation. This book serves as a valuable resource for scholars, students, and professionals interested in religious ethics, political philosophy, and public policy. It invites readers to reflect on the enduring impact of Christian thought on concepts of justice and the responsibilities of the state. 410 0$aLaw and Criminology Series 606 $aTaxation$xLaw and legislation 606 $aBusiness enterprises$xTaxation 606 $aBusiness tax$xLaw and legislation 606 $aTaxation 606 $aFiscal policy 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aConstitutional law 606 $aFiscal Law 606 $aBusiness Taxation and Tax Law 606 $aTaxation Policy 606 $aIntercultural Philosophy and Religious Traditions 606 $aConstitutional Law 615 0$aTaxation$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aBusiness enterprises$xTaxation. 615 0$aBusiness tax$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aTaxation. 615 0$aFiscal policy. 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 0$aConstitutional law. 615 14$aFiscal Law. 615 24$aBusiness Taxation and Tax Law. 615 24$aTaxation Policy. 615 24$aIntercultural Philosophy and Religious Traditions. 615 24$aConstitutional Law. 676 $a343.04 700 $avan Brederode$b Robert F$01829562 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011343003321 996 $aChristian Perspectives on the Role of the State, Justice, and Taxation$94399017 997 $aUNINA
