我国个人所得税改革历程和目标设想

个人所得税作为现行税制中唯一能通过累进税制实现纵向公平的税种,在调节收入分配、缩小贫富差距的政策选择中被寄予厚望,成为当下中国社会普遍关注的焦点。我国的个人所得税制度自1980年随着第一部《个人所得税法》的颁布而正式确立以来,经历了不断调整完善的改革过程。现行的个人所得税制度符合当前我国经济社会发展的实际,对调节收入分配、改善民众福利、促进经济发展有积极的作用。但与社会转型相适应,个人所得税依然面临着改革的压力。兼顾公平和效率、兼顾经济规律与社会文化、兼顾流量与存量的职能调节、兼顾短期与长期调节是改革的原则,为此,需要加强对高收入群体的管理,增加个人所得税管理的透明度,建立居民个人信息共享系统和个人所得税信息化管理平台,建立综合与分类相结合的制度体系直至建立完全意义上的综合个人所得税征收模式,配套完善自然人税收制度和管理,完善税制设计。

从法治本土化角度谈习惯与制定法之间的互动

制定法作为现代法治社会尤其是大陆法系国家法律渊源的主要表现形式,其内容是抽象的、概括的,具有稳定性的特征。然而,社会生活是具体的、易变的,由此产生了法与社会生活的不适应性,因而其他渊源作为制定法的补充地位显而易见。我国正在进行的法治现代化建设,不仅包括对西方先进法律制度的借鉴,还应关注"本土化资源"。唯有两者结合,才能实现国家制定法与习惯等民间法治资源的良性互动。

The economics of crime and criminal law: An antithesis to sociological theories?

The relationship between sociology and economics of crime has been dominated by mutual prejudice and misunderstanding. This paper tries to contribute to a change of this stale of affairs by showing that, on the one hand, the economics of crime does not as a method imply politically conservative policy recommendations and, on the other hand, that insights of the sociology of crime may enrich the economic approach considerably. This is done via a brief survey of the economics of enforcement, the literature on the relation of income distribution and unemployment on crime, and the literature relating sociological theories of crime to methodological individualism.

Social stratification: Individual importance and social welfare

A method to estimate a household's social status in a stratified society is described. We do not leave it up to the respondents what is to be understood by status, as most methods do, but define it as the weight of the household with respect to social welfare. In order to operationalize this individual relative importance concept we measure and utilize the individual welfare evaluations. Our empirical results for a data set collected in the Boston area in 1983 show the dependency of social status and social stratification on individual characteristics. A comparison made with some other methods shows the feasibility of our approach.     

Share and share alike? Social constraints on income equalization

This paper investigates the relation between what citizens prefer and what the results of policy making in a representative democracy are. The viability of a potential explanation reconstructed from a combination of insights from welfare economics and explanatory sociology is considered. The results suggest that not only the market will fail as a coordination mechanism to bring about a collective good such as a preferred income distribution in a nation state, but that income policy in a representative democracy tends to give rise to certain discrepancies between preferences and policy results as well. Voter's preferences will be distorted in the formulation of policy by politicians and in the implementation of policy by bureaucrats.
