Review :
'Neil McCulloch's Stopping Fossil Fuel Subsidies is well worth reading because it takes seriously the complexities of the problem. McCulloch recognises the importance of this topic for plenary protection, but his primary lens is the complex politics and ground realities that lead to political lock-in in fossil fuel subsidising countries. Instead of espousing an abstract global rationality to removing fossil fuel subsidies, he focuses on the need to understand country contexts - the consumption subsidies, the political campaign contributions, the lack of credibility of alternative support - that make fossil fuel removal political fraught. This is the right starting point. Only once he gets 'beneath the surface', as he puts it, does he offer practical, manageable, steps toward reform; steps that take seriously the real political economies of real places and the need to avoid impacts on the poorest. Written in crisp and accessible prose, and sprinkled with country examples, McCulloch's is the best and most accessible text I have seen on the thorny, yet essential challenge of removing fossil fuel subsidies.' Professor Navroz Dubash, Centre for Policy Research
