?:abstract
  • In this chapter we review what is known about the tax preferences of voters. We outline how public preferences about tax levels and tax progressivity are shaped by economic self-interest, but also by normative and causal ideas. Using survey data from both the Global North and the Global South, we contrast widespread and persistent public distaste for higher tax levels with high and rising support for more progressive taxation. Yet we caution against viewing widespread public support for progressive taxation as support for tax-and-transfer systems that are redistributive overall. Looking more closely at the institutional determinants of tax preferences, it becomes clear that support for progressive taxation tends to be fostered only in institutional contexts that ensure those who pay more in taxes also benefit more from state-provided goods and services.
