This book reviews how far East Asian nations have implemented green
fiscal reform, and show how they can advance carbon-energy tax
reform to realize low carbon development, with special reference to
European policy and experience. East Asian nations are learning
European experiences to adopt them in their political, economic and
institutional contexts. However, implementation has been slow in
practice, partly due to low acceptability that comes from the same
concerns as in Europe, and partly due to weak institutional
arrangements for the reform. The slow progress in the revenue side
turns our eyes to the expenditure side: how East Asian nations have
increased environmental-related expenditures, and how far they have
greened sectorial expenditures. This "lifecycle" assessment of
fiscal reform, coupled with the assessment of the institutional
arrangement constitutes the features of this book. The book helps
to provide an overall picture of green fiscal reform and
carbon-energy tax reform in the East Asian region. The region has a
variety of countries, from lowest income to high income nations.
Nations have different interests in substance and barriers for
reform. This book covers recent development of environmental fiscal
reform and carbon-energy taxation in wider nations in the region,
including South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and
Japan. In addition, the book's holistic view helps to understand
why a specific nation has interest and concern on some aspects of
the reforms.
