On the Origins of Taxation: (Ancient roots of tax systems)
25.15€
In this monograph, the author examines the ancient origins of taxation, tracing its roots from prehistoric times to the emergence of early civilizations. The work analyzes how tax systems evolved along two distinct paths in irrigated and rainfed farming cultures, challenging the notion that taxation is merely a byproduct of established states. Instead, the author argues that organized taxation was a fundamental catalyst for the development of early states, administration, and sovereignty. Drawing on archaeological evidence, historical data, and sociological frameworks, the study provides a comprehensive look at the emergence of early public works, crop taxes, and military service obligations in societies ranging from Ancient Egypt to the Roman Empire.
