| Decades of gender equality reform in the international legal sphere have promised a more gender-equal future for all women. In 2015, the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda envisioned a world where no one is ‘left behind’. Domestic taxation systems are one of the most potent tools within the arsenal of states for engendering equality in contemporary societies. Increasingly, however, rather than addressing inequalities, national tax frameworks are producing and further entrenching gender inequity. In this chapter, Lahey considers alternative domestic tax structures and their gendered impacts – impacts which continue to leave women in countries at all levels of development economically unequal with men. Lahey concludes there is an urgent need to improve the tools being used to monitor the gendered impact of taxation structures to ensure domestic tax and spending outcomes become more gender-responsive. | |
