Reciprocity and Family Values: The Case of Inheritance-Inheritance and Love. Turning the Parental Love Argument Against Inheritance Taxation on Its Head-Special Family Duties and the Right to Inherit-Uniform Inheritance: The Argument from Liberal Neutrality Read More
Inheritance taxation is generally defended on egalitarian grounds. And reluctance towards such policies is often driven by familialist concerns. Should we not grant the right to, or even impose the duty on, parents to privilege their own children? Is the latter compatible with taxing inheritance? In this issue, the various authors explore the ways in which egalitarian and familialist concerns should be combined to think about fair inheritance taxation.

Taxer les héritages est souvent justifié par un principe d'égalité. On lui oppose cependant fréquemment des préoccupations familialistes : ne faut-il pas défendre le droit, voire l’obligation, des parents à privilégier leurs propres enfants ? Mais ceci serait-il encore compatible avec l’impôt sur les successions ? Dans ce numéro, les auteurs explorent la manière dont les considérations égalitaristes et familialistes doivent être articulées pour penser la justice de la fiscalité successorale.
