Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book explores the multi-dimensional asymmetries of scale, time, and directions in the large dam controversy with a regional focus on Asia, especially on India and China.

Based on the notion of a contested politicised environment, various case studies are analysed to identify the dominant narratives and imaginations that shape the large dams debate. This volume largely contains contributions related to several subprojects from within the Cluster of Excellence 'Asia and Europe in a Global Context: Shifting Asymmetries inCultural Flows', based at Heidelberg University, with several expert contributions from external researchers.…
