First\, he proves a median voter theorem for monotonic reforms of non-linear tax systems. This yields a characterization of reforms that are preferred by a majority of individuals over the status quo and hence politically feasible. Second\, he shows that every Pareto-efficient tax system is such that moving towards lower tax rates for below-median incomes and towards higher rates for above median incomes is politically feasible. Third\, he develops a method for diagnosing whether a given tax system admits reforms that are politically feasible and/or welfare-improving. \nMore information about Felix Bierbrauer and his work. \nDownload the poster.
