Globalization and factor income taxation

P Bachas, MH Fisher-Post, A Jensen, G Zucman - 2022 - nber.org
Exploiting a new global macro-historical database of effective tax rates, we uncover an
intriguing pro-tax-capacity effect of international trade. While effective capital tax rates have …

When should we (not) interpret linear iv estimands as late?

T Słoczyński - arXiv preprint arXiv:2011.06695, 2020 - arxiv.org
In this paper I revisit the interpretation of the linear instrumental variables (IV) estimand as a
weighted average of conditional local average treatment effects (LATEs). I focus on a …
