Birch Professor of Economics and Law at the University of California, Berkeley, and past president of the National Tax Association, presented the 2021 Martin Feldstein Lecture on "Taxing Business Income in a Global Economy." He examined the challenges of taxing multinational firms when capital is mobile, markets are integrated, and businesses derive a substantial part of their earnings from intangible assets.
