Research Abstract |
This study investigates the sustainability of tax harmonization among local (or national) governments in the repeated game setting. We construct a multi-period dynamic model which contains the standard static tax competition game as a stage game of the repeated game. Employing either trigger strategies or weakly renegotiation equilibrium strategy, we have explored under what conditions tax harmonization is sustainable in such a model.
