Research focusing on progressive taxation's role in addressing income inequality has gained traction, with studies modeling its effects on social equity and economic outcomes. - Environmental Taxation:

Declining or Waning
- Traditional Tax Structures:
Research on traditional tax structures, such as fixed-rate income taxes and property taxes, has become less frequent as scholars shift toward more dynamic and innovative taxation models. - Taxation in Developed Economies:
The journal's focus on tax issues specific to developed economies has diminished, with a noticeable increase in studies centered on developing and transitional economies. - Historical Tax Policy Studies:
There has been a decline in papers focusing solely on historical analyses of tax policies, as contemporary issues and their implications take precedence. - Single-Dimensional Tax Issues:
Research addressing taxation in isolation, without consideration of broader economic or social contexts, is decreasing, as interdisciplinary approaches become more popular. - Tax Evasion Studies:
While still important, studies specifically focused on tax evasion without linking to compliance behavior or economic impact are appearing less frequently.
