Relevance of research topic. Tax policy provides the largest share of revenue in the consolidated budget. In modern conditions, tax policy requires continuous improvement and adaptation to changes in the model of socio-economic development. It is necessary to develop approaches to the use of tax instruments taking into account globalization trends, structural features and the state of the domestic economy. Formulation of the problem. Despite the structural transformation of the fiscal policy in recent years, the issue of seeking a balance of interests between taxpayers and government institutions remains relevant. Harmonious coordination of relevant interests in the field of taxation will maximize the amount of tax revenues to the budget. Analysis of recent research and publications. The issue of tax policy was considered by foreign ones - A. J. Auerbach, R. M. Bird, E. M. Zolt, E. Zwick, S. Knack, J. Freedman, I. Zwick - and domestic scientists - L. Lysyak, A. Mazaraki, V.

Tax policy as a component of the budget revenue generation system is influenced by economic transformations and adapts to macroeconomic conditions. Tax revenues are the financial basis for the exercise of authority by participants in the budget process and the implementation of the functions and tasks assigned to them. The level of redistribution of the GDP through the budget revenues depends on the volume and priority of the tasks and functions of public institutions, the development model and social policy. Approaches to the formation of budget revenues through tax revenues should provide opportunities for improving the tax administration, the development of the state and territorial community, strengthening financial stability and creating favorable conditions for sustainable growth.

For many families across Pennsylvania, child care is an ever-present concern. Since the 1970s, when Richard Nixon vetoed a national childcare program, child care has received little time in the policy spotlight. Instead, funding for child care in the United States now comes from a mixture of federal, state, and local programs that do not help all families. This article explores childcare options available to families in the state of Pennsylvania and highlights gaps in the current system. Specifically, we examine the state of child care available to families in the Commonwealth in terms of quality, accessibility, flexibility, and affordability. We also incorporate survey data from a nonrepresentative sample of registered Pennsylvania voters conducted by the Pennsylvania Center for Women and Politics. As these results support the need for improvements in the current childcare system, we discuss recommendations for the future.

This chapter describes how the timeline of Byzantine historical writing can be divided into three 140-year periods: first, from AD 500–640, the end of late antiquity, when historiography flourished in many genres; second, from 640–780, when Byzantium struggled to resist Arab conquest and few surviving texts were produced; and finally, from 780–920, an age of recovery for the state and literature, when older traditions were resynthesized and the foundations for new developments were laid. Primarily, the society of the Eastern Empire was mostly Greek speaking, Christian, and specifically Roman in its political or national consciousness. The ‘usable past’ available to historians was therefore complex, consisting of incommensurate components that defined different sites of the culture.
