A core area of the journal is the examination of existing tax policies and the exploration of potential reforms. This includes critical evaluations of tax legislation and the implications of changes in tax systems across different jurisdictions. - Small Business Taxation:
There is a significant emphasis on the unique challenges faced by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in navigating tax regulations. The journal publishes research that highlights the perceptions and experiences of small business owners regarding tax compliance and structure. - Cross-Jurisdictional Studies:
The journal actively seeks comparative analyses of tax systems across different countries, particularly within the Australasian context. This includes insights into how different nations handle similar tax issues and what lessons can be learned from each other's experiences. - Theoretical Frameworks in Taxation:
Research contributions often utilize various theoretical frameworks to analyze taxpayer behavior, compliance, and the effectiveness of tax systems. This theoretical lens provides a deeper understanding of the motivations and challenges faced by taxpayers.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of COVID-19 on Taxation:
There is a growing focus on how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected tax systems, particularly in terms of legislative changes and the need for adaptive measures in tax policy. This theme underscores the relevance of timely research in response to global crises. - Integration of Tax Education with Practical Experience:
Emerging themes emphasize the importance of integrating tax education with real-world experience, such as through tax clinics and work-integrated learning programs. This trend reflects a commitment to enhancing the practical skills of future tax professionals. - Cross-Border Taxation Issues:
Increased attention is being paid to cross-border taxation, especially in the context of globalization and international business. Studies are exploring the implications of tax policies across different jurisdictions and their impact on multinational enterprises. - Small Business Perspectives on Tax Structure:
Research is increasingly focusing on the perceptions and experiences of small business owners regarding tax structures and compliance. This trend highlights the need for policies that are responsive to the unique challenges faced by SMEs.
Declining or Waning
- Historical Tax Practices:
There seems to be a waning interest in historical analyses of tax practices, with fewer studies examining past tax systems or legislation. This shift may indicate a preference for contemporary issues and forward-looking reforms rather than retrospective evaluations. - Theoretical Studies with Limited Practical Application:
While theoretical frameworks are still important, there is a noticeable decline in purely theoretical studies that do not translate into practical implications for tax policy or education. Researchers are increasingly focusing on applied research that addresses current challenges. - Tax Compliance as a Sole Focus:
Research solely centered on tax compliance without considering the broader context of tax education and policy reform has become less frequent. This reflects a growing recognition that compliance issues are intertwined with education and systemic reform.
