Join us for the launch of this special issue of the Journal on Financing for Development which is celebrating, in a collection of essays, the work of Professor Sol Picciotto, emeritus professor at Lancaster University, ICTD Research Affiliate, Senior Adviser of the Tax Justice Network, coordinator of the BEPS Monitoring Group, and a Member of the Steering Group of Independent Commission for the Reform of International Corporate Taxation (ICRICT).
The essays collected in this special issue examine various aspects of Prof Picciotto’s academic contributions, focusing primarily on the unitary taxation of multinational enterprises through formulary apportionment and the internationalisation of the State. The authors discuss unitary taxation in light of the BEPS Pillar One proposal and as a potential policy option for the global South, generally and within the context of the extractive industry. Additionally, the challenges of international taxation are explored within the broader debate on the internationalisation of the State.
