This book takes a taxpayer s perspective to the relations taxation creates between people and their state. Larsen proposes that in order to understand tax compliance and cheating we have to look beyond law psychological experiments and surveys to include tax collectors and taxpayers practices. The text explores the view of taxes seen as citizen s explicit economic relation to the state and implicit economic relation to all other compatriots. Larsen suggests how to build and increase tax compliance if we take the idea of taxation creating reciprocal relations seriously. The empirical cases are based on ethnography from two opposing tax practices in Sweden. Firstly from a study of analysts auditors legal experts and managers at the Swedish Tax Agency and how they quite successfully strive for legitimacy in their tax collecting activities in society. Secondly from fieldwork among a group of middle-aged Swedes and how they justify their tax-cheating when purchasing work off the books. Sweden is a modern society seen as particularly rational and the least prone to worry about survival issues; they trust their government and fellow citizens. Sweden is therefore an important country to look at as an example of tax compliance and whether other countries showing a continuous inclination towards these values will follow their lead.

In this poignant novel a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment--reading to others. After an accident--or the misfortune as his cancer-ridden father s caretaker Celeste calls it--Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five he leads a dull lonely life chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools the City of Eternal Spring is now plagued by robberies kidnappings and the other myriad forms of violence bred by drug trafficking. At first Eduardo seems unable to connect. He movingly reads the words of Dostoyevsky Henry James Daphne du Maurier and more but doesn t truly understand them. His eccentric listeners--including two brothers one mute who moves his lips while the other acts as ventriloquist; deaf parents raising children they don t know are hearing; and a beautiful wheelchair-bound mezzo soprano--sense his detachment. Then Eduardo comes across a poem his father had copied by the Mexican poet Isabel Fraire and it affects him as no literature has before. Through these fascinating characters like the practical quick-witted Celeste who intuitively grasps poetry even though she never learned to read Fabio Morábito shows how art can help us rediscover meaning in a corrupt unequal society.
