Evolutionary Tax Reform in Emerging Economies

An Income-Based Approach

By: Robert F Conrad,Michael Alexeev

Evolutionary Tax Reform in Emerging Economies: an income-based approach provides one approach to tax reform in emerging economies. Conrad describes the context for tax reform in these economies and outlines the "Standard Approach" to tax reform, an approach that is critically evaluated. Emphasis is placed on revenue generation given to economic efficiency considerations and constraints, institutional and economic, that change through time, and the approach of the work is based on two main elements: policy, for all tax instruments, developed with the individual as the taxpayer, and policy implemented via the use of withholding taxes (advanced taxes), to the extent possible, and via the use of withholding agents, Advanced Payment Agents (APA's). Evolutionary Tax Reform in Emerging Economies examines APAs, direct tax (income tax), and VAT, excises, and tariffs, and discusses topics such as how the base of each tax is defined, how the base might change over time, how APAs are used to collect advanced payments, and how to preserve excise tax collection at the point of production (or import).

Chicago's Grand Hotels

The Palmer House Hilton, The Drake, and The Hilton Chicago

By: Robert V. Allegrini

Architecturally imposing, historically rich, and socially important, Chicagos magnificent grand hotels have fascinated generations of Chicagoans and have pleased generations of guests. The Palmer House Hilton, The Drake, and The Hilton Chicago have come to represent a collective formal living room for Chicago, where the citys most important visitors are accommodated, entertained, and made aware of the grandeur and sophistication of their hosts hometown. They were built to inspire aweand still do for anyone fortunate enough to find themselves in the lobby of The Palmer House Hilton, The Palm Court of The Drake, or the Grand Ballroom of The Hilton Chicago. Many of the most famous locales in these classic structures have been transformed or have disappeared altogether due to changing times. Gone, for example, is The Hilton Chicagos famous rooftop miniature golf course and Boulevard Room supper club, complete with its ice shows. Gone, too, is The Drakes legendary supper club, the Camellia House. While the Empire Room of The Palmer House Hilton continues to exist as an function room, it no longer reverberates with the sound of Liberaces piano or Jimmy Durantes vocals, as it did when it was the citys premier entertainment facility. Chicagos Grand Hotels chronicles over 100 years of Chicago hotel history through vivid photographs and memorabilia from the archives of The Palmer House Hilton, The Drake, and The Hilton Chicago. It tells the compelling story of the visionary architects and hoteliers who brought these hotels to life and made them structural testaments to the warmth of midwestern hospitality.
