Voting over income tax progression in a two-period model

Article Abstract:

An analysis of income tax progression is presented. The analysis assumes that individuals have the power to change taxable income schedules through voting. A 1977 Roberts's research establishes a choice set for voting over a linear negative income tax. It is shown that results of the 1977 research does not apply to the case of an income tax schedule which is conditioned by a tax-free threshold in the two-period example.

Gender discrimination without gender difference: theory and policy responses

Article Abstract:

Evaluation of anti gender-discrimination policies reveals that policies targeting labour market outcomes can lead to reduced discrimination and external factor alteration. The study also finds that anti-discrimination policies targetted at external factors such as higher job turnover and high exit rates for women prove to be less effective in general unless combined with more direct policies.
