In search for useful understanding of the term “privacy” for tax matters
The terminology issue regarding the concept of “privacy” seems to be increasingly important in the context of the changing tax reality in which the emphasis is put even more strongly than before on the protection of fiscal interest, at the expense of limiting the sphere of taxpayers' privacy, in particular through the expansion of their surveillance on an unprecedented scale.
The OECD, in its notable achievements, treats the taxpayer's right to privacy very superficially. In one of the documents, which is a kind of report on the rights and obligations of taxpayers in force in individual countries, we can read that “All taxpayers have the right to expect that the tax authorities will not intrude unnecessarily upon their privacy”. I would argue that this statement is far not enough in the reality of current technological possibilities and realizes too narrow protection of taxpayer’s right. The issue of taxpayers’ right to privacy should be introduced to public and scientific awareness. But how should the term privacy itself be understood? The answer is not easy, one the term is not precise so understanding is difficult though the literature on this issue is very broad. Two it is rarely used on the ground of debate on taxation. The critical approach has led to a review of the immensely rich body of literature on the theory of privacy and the right to privacy, and an attempt to adopt an understanding of the term “privacy” that will also be useful in tax matters. There is the absence of a consensus on the adoption of a particular way of defining “privacy”. For that reason it has to be emphasized that there is no theoretical basis to conduct a discussion on this specific taxpayer right, which is right to privacy. This paper is an attempt to find such understanding of the term "privacy" that will be useful in tax context.
期刊介绍:
In legislation and in case law, European law has become a steadily more dominant factor in determining national European company laws. The “European Company”, the forthcoming “European Private Company” as well as the Regulation on the Application of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS Regulation”) have accelerated this development even more. The discussion, however, is still mired in individual nations. This is true for the academic field and – even still – for many practitioners. The journal intends to overcome this handicap by sparking a debate across Europe on drafting and application of European company law. It integrates the European company law component previously published as part of the Zeitschrift für Unternehmens- und Gesellschaftsrecht (ZGR), on of the leading German law reviews specialized in the field of company and capital market law. It aims at universities, law makers on both the European and national levels, courts, lawyers, banks and other financial service institutions, in house counsels, accountants and notaries who draft or work with European company law. The journal focuses on all areas of European company law and the financing of companies and business entities. This includes the law of capital markets as well as the law of accounting and auditing and company law related issues of insolvency law. Finally it serves as a platform for the discussion of theoretical questions such as the economic analysis of company law. It consists of articles and case notes on both decisions of the European courts as well as of national courts insofar as they have implications on European company law.
