The book "Subversive Economy and Tax Evasion Issues: A Systematic Analysis" offers a comprehensive examination of the shadow economy and its impact on the global economy. It highlights the reasons, characteristics, and public perception of off-the-books activities, which have been insufficiently researched thus far. This analysis is particularly relevant for decision-makers as it provides insights into the functioning of both legal and illegal markets. The shadow economy is identified as a significant factor in economic development across various countries, including developed, transitional, and developing nations. With an estimated share of 39 percent of global GDP, the relevance of this topic is undeniable. The work is of interest not only to academics but also to policymakers who wish to understand the dynamics of the shadow economy.
