博客來The global economy is being remade through an unprecedented wave of subsidies. Trillions of dollars are being poured into batteries, wind power, solar manufacturing, green hydrogen, and clean steel, as nations compete for jobs, industries, and strategic security. Green Subsidy Wars traces this fierce contest across the United States, Europe, China, India, and beyond, showing how industrial policy once thought obsolete has become the centerpiece of the clean energy transition.
Drawing on verifiable data, policy records, and industrial outcomes, Sky Adler reveals how subsidies have shaped global markets: how costs for clean technologies have plunged, how supply chains have been redrawn, and how the balance between competition and cooperation now defines the race to decarbonize. This is not just a story of climate ambition-it is also one of political rivalry, trade disputes, and the remaking of globalization itself.
Rich in historical parallels and grounded in contemporary evidence, Green Subsidy Wars offers readers a sweeping narrative of how today’s choices will be remembered: either as wasteful rivalries that entrenched divisions, or as the decisive push that scaled clean technologies fast enough to change the course of history.
