Abstract: | This article explores taxation externalities in federations of benevolent governments. The article derives a discriminating hypothesis to distinguish vertical and horizontal tax externalities based on measurable variables and found that vertical externalities dominate. They are an observed empirical phenomenon as well as a notable extension to the theory of tax competition. |
