520    "Fossil fuel subsidies strain public budgets, and 
       contribute to climate change and local air pollution. 
       Despite widespread agreement among experts about the 
       benefits of reforming fossil fuel subsidies, repeated 
       international commitments to eliminate them, and valiant 
       efforts by some countries to reform them, they continue to
       persist. This book helps explain this conundrum, by 
       exploring the politics of fossil fuel subsidies and their 
       reform. Bringing together scholars and practitioners, the 
       book offers new case studies both from countries that have
       undertaken subsidy reform, and those that have yet to do 
       so. It explores the roles of various intergovernmental and
       non-governmental institutions in promoting fossil fuel 
       subsidy reform at the international level, as well as 
       conceptual aspects of fossil fuel subsidies. This is 
       essential reading for researchers and practitioners, and 
       students of political science, international relations, 
       law, public policy and environmental studies. This title 
       is also available as Open Access"-- Provided by publisher.
