搁茅蝉耻尘茅
[En anglais seulement] What is the impact of exploitation in the supply chains of multi-national enterprises on the appropriate allocation of corporate income tax revenue to jurisdictions where these enterprises are active? This presentation will develop a concept of exploitation based on the violation of the right to a living wage, put this in the context of discussions of transfer mispricing in multinational enterprises, and consider the economic dimension of the allocation of corporate income tax revenue in relation to public goods provision in low-income countries where exploitation occurs.
