Abstract
This paper argues that Pillar 2 not only creates a global minimum tax on large multinational enterprises, but also manifests a new international fiscal law regime. Through the lens of a new notion of sovereignty –networked fiscal sovereignty, this paper explains Pillar 2’s raison d’être, technical components and future prospect.
