Optimal representative taxation, information and tax reform
This paper moves toward the formulation of a normative theory of taxation that incorporates collective choice as an essential element. Such a theory has many interesting parallels to optimal taxation, including large information requirements for political agents. The paper discusses possible solutions to the information problem in a collective choice setting. The answer appears to lie in a decentralized information gathering and policy process rather than in the development of simplified guidelines for improving the decisions of central planners. The paper proposes a framework to examine the gains and losses in expected support from decentralized policy choices affecting taxation, and uses the analysis to discuss the influence of differences in constitutional structure on the adoption of informational strategies and to review the nature of tax reform.

The Political Economy of Taxation: Power, Structure, Redistribution
In this chapter I provide an overview of the political economy of taxation in democratic states by considering the three most important issues in the field: (1) the evolution of the power to tax in (what are now) the mature constitutional democracies; (2) the nature and determinants of modern tax structures; and (3) redistribution in pluralistic societies over various horizons and in the face of economic shocks. The discussion considers the ideas and models that have arisen as scholars have grappled with these related issues, and points to some of the outstanding problems that may be worth pursuing in future research.
