“…West (2017) correctly argues that many different terms are used to describe attempts to reduce tax payments including "tax avoidance, tax minimisation, tax evasion, tax fraud, tax planning, tax dodging, tax aggressiveness, tax sheltering, tax abuse, tax mitigation, and tax resistance." One the one side authors like West (2017) and Dowling (2015) use the term "tax avoidance" in a broad and comprehensive way as an umbrella term; on the other side, more distinctions are made. For example, Bird and Davis-Nozemack (2016) differentiate between tax minimization, tax avoidance, and tax evasion.…”
