Theme presents a topic of great interest, both theoretically and practically, given that how to place taxes has direct repercussions on the economic development of a country, and undoubtedly influence the rules of an economy, particularly in terms of investment, labor market, and social welfare. It was considered necessary in the first part of the paper to address the conceptual elements and present the most important features of tax systems and the principles that underlie them. It was studied from a theoretical perspective and it found the European tax models as follow： Nordic, continental, Anglo-Saxon, Mediterranean, and catching-up. Then, it analyzed each fiscal European model on each member country, starting from its economic indicators, based on Eurostat data. The objective of the research paper was to present a complete picture of the structure and trends of tax level of the member states of the European Union, sorted by European tax models and the impact of taxation on economic growth and social welfare. The research has concluded that, as long as the rules of the European Union, member states are free to choose their own tax system along with their fiscal policy for economic development and having in a view of their geographical, historical, and political situation.展开更多

They interact and have an impact on each other＇s actions following by tax compliance or tax non-compliance. However, no wider study encompassing both tax payers and tax administrators has been conducted in Lithuania. Since a survey of all participants in the tax system would require substantial time, human, and financial resources, during the first study, only one group, tax payers, was surveyed. During the second study, tax administrators were surveyed along with the tax payers. The present study has the following objectives： to describe the problem of tax evasion in the context of attitudes and behaviours of participants in the tax system; to estimate the tax compliance and evasion situation in Lithuania on the basis of attitudes and behaviours of tax payers; to establish how tax administrators estimate the tax compliance （evasion） situation in Lithuania; to assess the relationship between tax administrators and tax payers; to determine similarities and differences of their attitudes; to assess the key aspects of tax evasion; and to identify measures for the solution of this problem.展开更多
