Sustainable development involves integration of economic, socio-cultural and ecological orders. A science on public finance should play a key role in such development because it formulates recommendations for economic policy. However a clear gap emerges in the study of the role of public finances in the new development model. The paper tries to indicate, suitable for a new paradigm, notions and categories of the science on public finance. It seems necessary to “physicalize” financial phenomena.
From October 2017 the European Union envisages the abolition of the socalled sugar quotas and minimum prices for buying sugar beet. As a consequence of these changes the sugar levies paid by the sugar factories of the Member States will cease to apply. The article identifies the fiscal effects of the abolition of these levies. The European Union and the Member States will lose some of their budget revenues. The structure of Member States’ burdens for GNI payments will also change as well as their operating balance relative to the EU budget.
