International Tax Primer
ASIN: 9041198520 |
Book Description
The taxation of international economic activities presents two essential considerations: revenues must be shared equitably by the nations involved, and those nations must be able to enforce their domestic tax laws.
Starting from these requirements of reciprocity and enforcement, Roy Rohatgi, an Arthur Andersen veteran with decades of experience, explains in this book the practical issues affecting international taxation of business income and capital gains. Unlike many books on this complex subject, his approach does not examine the tax perspective of any one country, but proceeds from an identification and analysis of the basic principles of the subject. This entails an understanding of factors, such as:
+ domestic tax laws, rules and practices and how they conflict on cross-border transactions;
+ bilateral tax treaties and their role in resolving international tax conflicts;
+ the use of offshore financial centres in international tax structures and how to choose them;
+ anti-avoidance measures imposed by national taxation authorities;
+ the application of national judicial decisions and interpretations of national authorities; and
+ international tax guidelines and interpretations of bodies such as the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the International Fiscal Association (IFA).
Basic International Taxation describes each and all of these elements, weaving them into practical planning guidance providing a fundamental understanding of this subject in a single, easy-to-follow book. It explains those principles of international tax planning that take the costs and risks of international taxation fully into account and thereby optimize the after-tax returns on cross-border transactions. Several important current issues, including the taxation of electronic commerce, are also addressed.
Practitioners and students of tax law will benefit enormously from this clear-headed guidance, both for its day-to-day reference value and for the depth of understanding it conveys concerning essential principles.

Book Description
The interpretation and application of the rules of international and regional trade is becoming an increasingly specialised field. This study provides an in-depth analysis of the core legal concepts characterising the two most prominent and successful efforts in the regulation of international trade to date. Adopting a comparative method, it analyses the basic legal instruments employed by the EU and the WTO for the purpose of liberalising trade in goods among their respective Members. To this end, this study offers a fresh look at the principles underlying the basic rules of international trade law, including the prohibition of border measures, the principle of non-discrimination on grounds of nationality, and the principle of reasonableness.

Book Description
Countering recent interest in promoting tax cuts in Canada, this study examines how taxation helps define the nature of a political community and the values of a political culture. By comparing two Saskatchewan tax reports from the early 1960s and the late 1990s, this treatise demonstrates how assumptions about taxation policy reflect and shape conceptions of democracy and citizenship and contends that tax cuts promote an individual-centered rather than a society-based policy that affirms community values.

Book Description
Anyone involved in the study or practice of trade law knows the difficult and time-consuming nature of obtaining primary source material and consulting each of the main trade law instruments when examining the applicable treatment of a particular point. Now in its third edition, Basic Documents on International Trade Law solves this problem of inconvenience by assembling, in a single, easy-to-use resource, a very comprehensive collection of the most important and frequently used documents on the law of international trade. Professor Cheng's document selection is guided by his balance of experience in both academia and professional practice. In addition to its obvious practical value, this work also reveals much about the process of harmonisation in international trade law, the operation of the key international bodies, and the growth of the Law Merchant. Basic Documents on International Trade Law provides both an examination of key aspects of international trade law and a suggestion as to its future as well as a helpful source of reference for students, academics, international business lawyers, legislators, and government officials in the field. This latest edition contains a wealth of new material, reflecting the appearance of new conventions and model laws in international trade since the publication of the earlier versions. Certain parts have been substantially revised and re-arranged and several new instruments are included.

Book Description
Stalinism and Soviet Cinema marks the first attempt to confront systematically the role and influence of Stalin and Stalinism in the history and development of Soviet cinema. The editors of this collection have provided comprehensive coverage of the antecedents, role, and consequences of Stalinism and cinema, how Stalinism emerged, what the relationship was between the political leadership, film makers and their films and audiences, and how Soviet cinema is coming to terms with the disintegration of established structures and mythologies.
Contributors from Britain, America, and the Soviet Union explore questions crucial not only to the history of Soviet cinema but to Soviet history as a whole, and the Stalinist legacy.

Book Description
A. G. Spalding was a key figure in the professionalization and commercialization of American sports. Co-founder of baseball's National League, owner of the Chicago White Stockings (later Cubs), and founder of a sporting goods business that made him a millionaire, Spalding not only willed baseball to be our national pastime but also contributed to making sport a significant part of American life. This biography captures the zest, flamboyance, and creativity of Albert Goodwell Spalding, a man of insatiable ego, a showman and entrepreneur, whose life illuminated the hopes and fears of 19th-century Americans. It is also a vivid evocation of the vanished world of 19th-century baseball, recreating a time when it was transformed from a game played on unkempt fields to modern style.
Customer Reviews:
Very dry look at the business side of baseball.......2000-04-04
For the fan interested in the origins of baseball, this dry account is very likely of interest only to professional historians and Spalding family descendants. The playing days of the main character cover only two short chapters and never evince or even try for any excitement. The remainder covers Spalding's activities as a businessman, promoter, owner, baseball mogul, supporter of the theosophist movement and California senatorial candidate. Never does the book ever make us feel we have been swept away to relive those far off times. Having previously read Where They Ain't: The Fabled Life and Untimely Death of the Original Baltimore Orioles, the Team That Gave Birth to Modern Baseball by Burt Solomon , I felt greatly disappointed in comparison. The author intimates that Spalding, while a ferocious, tireless and successful promoter, probably failed to examine all sides of an issue sufficiently before jumping into frays and that Spalding lived more for the process itself than for the result. But despite all of these struggles, they are not told in an entertaining or moving way. In fact the reader is forced to slog through many, many quotes employing the hyperventilated prose of the day which by now has become quite stale. This book is classified as a baseball book, but really belongs in the American culture or American social history section. Unfortunately I cannot recommend it to anyone except researchers already working in this field who will probably enjoy this dry, spare, heavily-footnoted account. In fact, the way it reads suggests that the author was working not from passion for his subject, but perhaps from happenstance of a lucky archival find or commission, although I don't know the facts of course and am merely speculating.
Book Description
A lucid and lively discussion of the development of chess strategy by an international master and former U.S. Open and Canadian Open Champion and former member of the U.S. Olympic team. Saidy includes commentary on Bobby Fischer's recent rematch with Boris Spassky.
Customer Reviews:
The best chess book ever written.......2005-01-01
I have no doubt. This is the best chess book ever written. Saidy is not only a chess lover but also a wonderful writer and a great psychologist. I read the first edition of this book (The Battle of Chess Ideas)in Spanish, and I regret that there is not a Spanish translation of the new edition. This book is a piece of art, and I would recommend any chess lover to buy more than one copy. In short, a book for truly chess lovers and smart people.
Interesting, but..........2000-01-15
I guess I'm not all that surprised that it's out of print. This isn't a teaching guide. Instead, Saidy gives a chapter on each of several modern players (Fischer, Tal, etc.) and tries to explain how he (the player, not Saidy) advanced chess ideas. There's usually 2 or 3 games shown per player, which in actuality isn't enough to characterize that player. I think the book could be tighter in showing the connection between one generation's ideas and the next generation's refinements.
What's interesting is that Saidy is unapologetically in favor of creativity and experimentation. You'd think it's better lose brilliantly than win a slow, strategic match.

Customer Reviews:
Worthless.......2006-02-19
I agree with the other posting. I was hoping to leverage all SBA features as well as vaildate I was using the product correctly. This book was so incredibly basic it ceased to be of any value whatsoever. I am sending it back for a refund. Don't waste your money. Wait for a more advanced guide writen by a CPA or at least someone who understands business or accounting, not a part-time freelancer.
Worthless.......2005-10-07
The book is just a rehash of the User's Guide. It covers exactly the same topics with just a few extra words. It did not answer any industry specific questions that I could tell. Don't bother with this one.
