description | This special issue decenters tax as an analytic device for
understanding the relationship between state and citizen while examining the limits of social contract thinking. Focusing on how citizens interpret and react to state efforts to promote fiscal citizenship, it sheds light
on contemporary fiscal structures and public debates about the moralities, practices, and imaginaries of tax systems. The contributors use tax
to explore the nature of citizenship, personal freedom, and moral and
economic value. They also highlight how taxation may be influenced by
spaces of fiscal sovereignty that exist outside or alongside the state in the
form of alternative religious and economic communities |
