New Publication: Tax Havens and International Human Rights (Paul Beckett)

Tax Havens and International Human Rights

Paul Beckett, Mann Benham Advocates, Isle of Man

Series: Human Rights and International Law

This book takes a human rights based approach to tax havens. It makes plain the unscrupulous or merely indifferent ways in which, using tax havens, businesses and individuals systematically undermine and for all practical purposes eliminate access to remedies under international human rights law. It exposes as abusive of human rights a complex structural web of trusts, companies, partnerships, foundations, nominees and fiduciaries; secrecy, immunity and smoke screens. It also lays bare the cynical manipulation by tax havens of traditional legal forms and conventions, and the creation of entities so bizarre and chimeric that they defy classification.
