Institutional constraints on transport policymaking: the case of company cars in IsraelSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 35 - Trang 411-424 - 2007
Galit Cohen-Blankshtain
Transportation analysis emphasizes the necessity to internalize the transport
externalities of car usage through taxation. Yet taxation decisions are often
made with non-transport goals in mind. In such cases, transport policies are
made ‘by the way.’ This paper examines such a case: Israel’s taxation policy on
company cars. It shows that current taxation policies result in increasing
numbers of c... hiện toàn bộ
