60 Years of the European Convention on Human Rights and Taxation
Abstract
In this article, the author provides a survey of European Court of Human Rights decisions, from the 1959 X v. Germany case, regarding a tax levy on speculative bonds, to a series of recent cases on the prohibition of double jeopardy (ne bis in idem) set out in article 4 of the Seventh Protocol. The author goes on to examine areas in which the application of the ECHR has resulted in changes in the law, the biggest failings of the ECHR/ECtHR, the position of the taxpayer in the 2020s and, finally, the cause of any shortcomings in failing to protect taxpayers’ rights, together with possible solutions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
