Abstract
This paper reviews the current state of theoretical and empirical knowledge regarding compliance with the federal income tax laws. We focus on the validity of certain myths that have come to dominate tax compliance discussions. Toward that end, we discuss three general categories--empirical work, theoretical methodology and fiscal policy recommendations--that seem to require more careful assessment and formulation.
