With regard the wave of globalization, the acceptance of free trade is further enhanced so that globalization is known as the fundamental principle of economic growth in the developing countries. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between globalization and tax revenue, in the theoretically and empirically framework.
By using a panel of 16 developing countries over the period 1990–2009 and controlling for the endogeneity of several of the explanatory variables, error component two-stage least squares method is used.
Controll of determinants of tax revenue, the results of this study show that globalization (the share of international trade in gross domestic product) has a positive and statistically significant effect on tax revenue in developing countries. Another result is that macroeconomic policies and structural characteristics have significant effects on tax revenue and each of these factors plays an important role in determining the impact of globalization on tax revenue.

Study of price trend in Iran, showed that general level of prices is rising continually during time. An inflation situation has effect on most economic variables. Therefore investigation of effective factors and variables on inflation is important. Exchange rate and Gap in product are factors which affect inflation. In this paper the impact of exchange rate shocks and GAP on inflation in Iran’s economy with use of Hoderik Prescott filter and Kalman filter for analyzing exchange rate shocks and GAP during the time 1998:1-2007:4 in Johanson Cointegration test and VECM Model has studied. Main results indicated that, positive exchange rate shock has a negative effect and negative exchange rate shocks has a positive effect on inflation in the long run and sustainability in inflation in long run is less depended to exchange rate rather than short run. Also the Gap in gross domestic product and liquidity has a positive effect on inflation. So taking suitable exchange rate policy could be one way for controlling inflation.
