description The Carta Magna –agreed upon by John, king of England, and a group of bishops and feudal barons of his kingdom who had rebelled its authority in the year 1215- contains general principles on the good use of power. Several of the most significant principles relate to tax matters. Taxation is a powerful source of influence on the life of the countries and the institutional changes they give rise to depend on how people in each historical moment understand how these interrelationships between economics and politics act. The 800 years since the agreement of the Magna Carta allow a reflection on the importance of the relationship between institutions, taxation, economics and politics and this is of the utmost importance for the understanding of contemporary economic, political and fiscal issues. The objective of this article is to make an analysis of the most significant clauses of the Magna Carta, that is, those that constitute a cornerstone of modern economic-political institutions.

The objective of this article is to make an analysis of the most significant clauses of the Magna Carta, that is, those that constitute a cornerstone of modern economic-political institutions.     La Carta Magna –acordada entre Juan, rey de Inglaterra, y un grupo de obispos y barones feudales de su reino que se habían rebelado enfrentando su autoridad en el año 1215- contiene principios generales sobre el buen uso del poder. Varios de los principios más significativos se refieren a cuestiones fiscales; la fiscalidad es una fuente poderosa de influencia sobre la vida de los países y los cambios institucionales que originan dependen, para su éxito, de cómo las personas en cada momento histórico comprenden cómo actúan estas interrelaciones entre la economía y la política. Los 800 años transcurridos desde el acuerdo de la Carta Magna permiten realizar una reflexión sobre la importancia de la relación entre instituciones, fiscalidad, economía y política y esto es de suma importancia para la comprensión de temas económicos, políticos y fiscales contemporáneos. El objetivo de este artículo es realizar un análisis de las clausulas más significativas de la Carta Magna, es decir de aquellas que constituyen una piedra fundamental de las instituciones económico- políticas modernas.       Instituto de Economía y Finanzas.
