Panel 4 International tax law in a new global world order

This panel will examine the main international tax law implications of the emerging global world order, which is characterized by a crisis of the rule-based liberal international economic order and the rise of a new era of international economic warfare.

About the Conference
This Conference seeks to critically examine the international tax challenges and emerging opportunities arising from the evolving global landscape. In particular, the Conference addresses the tax implications of the ongoing digitalization of the economy, with specific attention to the transformative impact of digital platforms, blockchain technology, and artificial intelligence (AI).

Furthermore, the Conference explores the international tax consequences of the emerging geopolitical order, aiming to foster a deeper discussion on how the current crisis of the rule based liberal international economic order, together with the rise of a new era of international economic warfare, is reshaping the international tax system.

The Conference will also include discussions on the EU Tax Omnibus proposals, examining their objectives, design, and implications for the coherence and future direction of EU tax policy.

In addition to these core themes, the Conference will mark the completion of the CPT Project, which was officially launched in August 2020 and is scheduled to conclude in December 2026. On the opening day, CPT researchers will present and discuss the project’s principal themes and findings with a panel of experts, while the project leaders will reflect on the broader societal impact of the CPT Project in the field of international taxation.
