Abstract (en)

Discusses the significant reduction in the number of works of art donated to museums brought about by the 1986 Tax Reform Act. Also remarks on the likely deleterious effect on museum finances of current proposals which would open the door to taxing income earned by non-profit organizations from business activities.
