The thunder of history: the origins and development of the new fiscal sociology / Isaac William Martin, Ajay K. Mehrotra, Monica Prasad -- "The unfair advantage of the few": the New Deal origins of "soak the rich" taxation / Joseph J. Thorndike -- What Americans think of taxes / Andrea Louise Campbell -- Read their lips: taxation and the right-wing agenda / Fred Block -- Making taxes the life of the party / Christopher Howard -- The politics of demanding sacrifice: applying insights from fiscal sociology to the study of AIDS policy and state capacity / Evan S. Lieberman -- The end of the strong state?: on the evolution of Japanese tax policy / Eisaku Ide, Sven Steinmo -- War and taxation: when does patriotism overcome the free-rider impulse? / Naomi Feldman, Joel Slemrod -- Liberty, democracy, and capacity: lessons from the early American tax regimes / Robin L. Einhorn -- Extraction and democracy / Charles Tilly -- Improving tax administration in contemporary African states: lessons from history / Edgar Kiser, Audrey Sacks -- Adam Smith and the search for an ideal tax system / Beverly Moran -- Where's the sex in fiscal sociology?: taxation and gender in comparative perspective / Edward McCaffery -- The Shoup mission to Japan: two political economies intersect / W. Elliot Brownlee -- Epilogue: A Renaissance for fiscal sociology? / John L. Campbell.

The New Fiscal Sociology: Taxation in Comparative and Historical Perspective demonstrates that the study of taxation can illuminate fundamental dynamics of modern societies. The sixteen essays in this collection offer a state-of-the-art survey of the new fiscal sociology that is emerging at the intersection of sociology, history, political science, and law. The contributors include some of the foremost comparative historical scholars in these disciplines and others. They approach the institution of taxation as a window onto the changing social contract. Their chapters address the social and historical sources of tax policy, the problem of how taxes persist, and the social and cultural consequences of taxation. They trace fundamental connections between tax institutions and macrohistorical phenomena - wars, shifting racial boundaries, religious traditions, gender regimes, labor systems, and more.
