Source: Release, 01/01/2009
Ethics, Law and Citizenship is the first work of Ruben Quaresma, income inspector and master in Public Law. “The idea came up with my master's dissertation, whose theme was“ How is it possible to optimize the tax-taxpayer relationship? ”, Explained the author.
Judges, prosecutors, businessmen, public administrators, mayors, governors, president and ordinary citizens, among others, participate in the plot. Quaresma's proposal is to debate the Brazilian tax regime in an objective manner, based on the confrontation of the rights of others, that is, how far each can go without invading the other's space, and complying with his tax obligations as a citizen. To this end, the author shows the importance of these limits for good living in society. Ethics, law and citizenship are the main issues that permeate all chapters of the book.
In the work, there is an entire chapter dedicated to the work developed by ETCO - Brazilian Institute of Ethics in Competition, in relation to combating unfair competition. “The participation of the institute in this fight in favor of curbing tax evasion in the business sphere is fundamental, because, despite not being directly linked to the public administration, it has great interest in collaborating with the tax justice system, to improve the business environment”, concluded Ruben Quaresma.
