New Zealand Tax Law and Policy: Critical Junctures and Development, (Hardcover)

<p><b>The untold stories behind New Zealand's tax system through the analysis of the critical junctures in the development of New Zealand tax law and policy.</b> </p><p>From the 1912 Waihi mining strike to modern asset-stripping rules, from century-old gambling taxes to decades-long debates over the taxation of capital gains, this book reveals the fascinating threads that weave through New Zealand's tax history. Bringing together the insights of judges, policymakers, administrators, and practitioners who have shaped the system, along with inputs from tax academics, this book offers both intimate personal accounts and authoritative outside perspectives on how taxation evolved in Aotearoa and what other countries can learn from it. </p><p>Why has New Zealand debated a comprehensive capital gains tax for nearly sixty years without implementing one? How did public-private cooperation forge unique policy solutions? How has New Zealand both inspired international tax developments and boldly charted its own course, often diverging from the OECD's tax guidance? These questions and many more are answered through rigorous analysis and compelling storytelling. </p><p>Whether you are a tax professional, a policy analyst, a tax scholar, a student, or simply curious about the history of taxation, this collection offers invaluable insights into one of the world's most competitive, and yet cohesively consultative, tax systems.</p>
