Public Subsidies and Policy Failures provides extensive analysis of the theory and political economy of public support policies, demonstrating how subsidies can harm the environment, distort trade, and benefit those in society who do not require support.

International trade organisations and policymakers will also benefit from the strategic emphasis.…
