      1.1     Background

 

The power to impose rent is a dimension – and a crucial dimension – of state sovereignty.[1] The state must have a jurisdictional basis for exercising this power. Thus, the necessary precondition for the exercise of fiscal jurisdiction by a state is the existence of the requisite link between that person (or the potentially rent amount, where the source of income is in issue) and the state. It is relatively rate for rent payers to question the State’s jurisdictional power to impose rent them, but they may fear that the divergence of the definitional rules in this regard may expose them to being regarded as residents of more than one state. Tenants may legitimately expect that states should cooperate
