The results also indicated that social capital has a negative correlation with tax avoidance based on tax expense. However, this relationship is not significant, and also, social capital is not related to the amount of tax payment of company. Conclusion: The results indicate that companies do not consider the external environment and the society in which they are active, when they are involved in taking internal decisions such as tax avoidance, and that low and high levels of social capital cannot affect the decisions on corporate tax avoidance in the firms.Ghodratollah Barzegar (Ph.D)Jamil EbrahimiShahid Bahonar University of Kermanarticletax avoidancesocial capitalpeer companiessocial normsAccounting.
