Tax policy as a component of achieving social development

Summary/Abstract: Relevance of research topic. Under conditions of economic transformations it is necessary to ensure a reasonable approach towards the formation and implementation of tax policy in the medium- and long-term prospect. In case of its reforming, it is important to take into account the conditions of internal and external economic environment which will contribute to the institutionalization of the tax system. It is necessary to increase the efficacy of the tax policy as a component of achieving social development. Formulation of the problem. Under conditions of the instability of social development it is extremely important to further strengthen the adaptivity of the tax policy mechanism to exogenic and endogenic challenges which negatively influence the financial safety of the country. Further development of provisions of the institutional approach towards the development of the tax policy will allow to take into account the existing state of the socio-economic environment in case of economic transformations and to direct them towards resolving the most relevant social problems. Analysis of recent research and publications. Foreign scholars studied tax policy and its influence on the social development, among them E. Atkinson, J. Buchanan, J. Canes, A. Laffer, R.
