Increasing Dependency Ratios, Pensions and Tax Smoothing
The implication of increasing dependency ratios for pay–as–you–go, defined–benefit pension programmes are examined. Modifications aimed at smoothing contributions while maintaining benefits intact are analysed for both open and closed economies.(J.E.L.: H2, F3, J1).

The Perils of Tax Smoothing [PDF]
If permanent output is uncertain, tax smoothing can be perilous: both debt levels and tax rates are difficult to stabilize and may drift upwards. One practical remedy would be to target the debt. However, our simulations confirm that such a policy would require undesirably volatile fiscal adjustments and may inhibit countercyclical borrowing.

ABSTRACT We investigated the Písečný vrch (Czech Republic), a site exploited for quartz mining in both prehistoric times and the 20th century. Due to their morphological similarity across all mining periods, the differentiation between pits with archaeological potential and recent ones is challenging.

We study optimal labor and capital taxation in a dynamic economy subject to government expenditure and aggregate productivity shocks. We relax two assumptions from Ramsey models: that a representative agent exists and that taxation is proportional with no lump-sum tax.

Tax Smoothing in a Financially Repressed Economy
India has a long history of running fiscal deficits. Two broad considerations motivate a government to run a deficit: tax smoothing and tax tilting. This paper tests a version of Barro’s tax-smoothing model, using Indian data for the period 1951-52 to 1996-97.

A Business Framework for Product Take‐Back—A Structured Multiple‐Case Analysis
ABSTRACT The potential of take‐back systems remains largely unrealized as initiatives have proven difficult to implement in practice. The question is why we do not see more take‐back systems given the substantial environmental benefits. We try to understand the challenges and stumbling blocks in setting up take‐back from a business perspective.
