Σκοπός της Έδρας - Chair's core aims
Σκοπός της έδρας Jean Monnet είναι η εν γένει προώθηση της ακαδημαϊκής έρευνας και διδασκαλίας στα ζητήματα της φορολογικής πολιτικής και διοίκησης, τα οποία τοποθετούνται στην κορυφή της πολιτικής ατζέντας των θεσμικών οργάνων της ΕΕ, ωστόσο στην Ελλάδα ακόμα βρίσκονται σε πολύ πρώιμο στάδιο.
The main rationale behind the project is to
provide an impetus for extending and deepening the academic analysis and debate
on an issue which had been on the political agenda of the EU institutions on
taxation, but, at the same time, had been overseen by the academic world
especially in Greece, where no specific emphasis is put on the issues of EU tax
law.
ACADEMIC WORK
The first aspect of the Chair's purpose is to enhance the limited, so far, academic work, in terms of teaching and research, with regard to EU Tax Policy and Administration, by increasing the interest and deepening the knowledge in the field of studies related to EU tax law.
OUTWARD ORIENTATION
The second aspect of the Chair's purpose is to address the University's outward orientation by providing the general public, as well as specialised groups of stakeholders in the public and private sector, information and specialised knowledge on issues regarding EU Tax Policy and Administration, as a means of interpreting the recent and rapid tax developments in the EU.
JEAN MONNET COURSES
There will be five already existing courses (both undergraduate and postgraduate) that will be completely restructured, modernised and updated in terms of contents, didactic tools and teaching methodology.
NEW INITIATIVES
A summer school will be established while a new module on tax consciousness is going to be created as a "pilot" program initially at universities and, at a next stage, at schools, which should also cover core principles of EU tax law.
ACTIVITIES & EVENTS
Various activities will take place during the programme regarding EU tax law, such as conferences, moot courts, seminars, scientifc workshops, publications (articles and books), tax flashes and tax newsletters, in order for the academic work to be disseminated.
CORE AIM
The core aim is a) the actual and active promotion of EU tax law in Greece, where limited progress has been made up until now, in this scientific field, b) the creation of a custom-made LL.M program in Greece wholly dedicated to EU and International Tax law, which currently does not exist, c) the reorganization, update and enrichment of the existing modules of tax law with an EU orientation and d) the systemization and modernization of all the respective academic tools.
