Abstract

This paper aims to clarify the characteristics and attributes of the method of benefit in the distribution of tax burdens to finance public goods. The implications of the Samuelson conditions on the criteria of efficiency and equity in taxation, and a reformulation of these conditions, designed to ensure that collective decisions, while respecting the sovereignty of citizens or voters, ensure not only an efficient allocation, but also an equitable distribution of public burdens. For this, the replacement of traditional neoclassical utility functions by altruistic utility functions can obtain a "non-rival outcome" to ensure, at the same time, criteria of efficiency and equity in taxation.
