Call for Papers: Taxation and Migration Conference
The Faculty Lounge posted a call for papers for a conference that ImmigrationProf Blog readers might be interested in.
Call for Papers: Sanford E. Sarasohn Conference on Critical Issues in Comparative and International Taxation II: Taxation and Migration, Saint Louis University School of Law, March 31, 2017, sponsored by The Center for International and Comparative Law of Saint Louis University School of Law, The Saint Louis University Law Journal, and The Sanford E. Sarasohn Endowment Fund
As ever growing numbers of individuals seek economic and political refuge in Europe and North America, and increasing numbers of individuals and businesses seek refuge from the tax burdens of their home jurisdictions in lower tax jurisdictions, these in- and out- migrations strain the national economies of affected countries causing them to modify their taxation rules and structures. This conference will explore the effects of taxation on migration and the effects of migration on taxation. Papers on any topic related to taxation and migration of individuals or entities are welcome but those offering a critical perspective or addressing the impact of taxation on, and taxation changes relating to acceptance of, migrants from conflict areas are preferred. Please submit paper proposal abstracts by e-mail to Professor Henry Ordower at ordoweh@slu.edu no later than May 25, 2016. Notification of proposal acceptance is targeted for July 1, 2016.
Professors Kelly Mulholland, Henry Ordower, and Kerry Ryan will convene the Sarasohn Conference in 2017 as day one of the two-day 20th Critical Tax Theory Conference. The Critical Tax Theory Conference will continue through Saturday, April 1, 2017 at Saint Louis University School of Law and will follow the standard paper/incubator format.
