Convergencia e interdependencia fiscal ambiental en la Unión Europea

Palabras clave:

competencia fiscal, convergencia de clubes, Europa, impuestos ambientales

Resumen

Este artículo analiza la convergencia e interdependencia de los impuestos ambientales en EU-28 desde 1998 hasta 2018. Nuestros resultados evidencian una falta de integración europea y revelan la presencia de un grupo de países convergentes caracterizados por una carga tributaria decreciente. Además, un análisis de regresión espacial posterior sugiere que los países convergentes muestran una sensibilidad significativamente mayor hacia las políticas fiscales ambientales vecinas, lo cual sería compatible con cierto grado de competencia fiscal interestatal.
