Zusammenfassung: | This book conceptualises the ongoing hydropower expansion in Southwest China as a socio-political and transnational project transcending the construction of dams. Chapters in this volume are organised around three sections spanning hydropower and resettlement governance, rural livelihoods, and international relations connected to China’s hydropower expansion. Dam projects of various scales are analysed as infrastructure projects that shape peoples' livelihoods, the environment, and China's relations with Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Chapter 1. Introduction: Southwest China’s hydropower expansion and why it matters there and beyond (Jean-François Rousseau, Sabrina Habich-Sobiegalla) -- Chapter 2. The water-energy nexus of Southwest China’s rapid hydropower development: Challenges and trade-offs in the interaction between hydropower generation and utilisation (Thomas Hennig, Darrin Magee) -- Chapter 3. Leaving the Three Gorges after resettlement: Who left, why did they leave, and where did they go? (Brooke Wilmsen, Andrew van Hulten, Yuefang Duan) -- Chapter 4. Contestation over moral economy: Distant resettlement from the Three Gorges area to the Pearl River Delta (Bettina Gransow) etc. |
