Paperback. Etat : New. For decades, large dam projects have been undertaken by both nations and international agencies with the aim of doing good: preventing floods, bringing electricity to rural populations, producing revenues for poor countries, and more. But time after time, the social, economic, and environmental costs have outweighed the benefits of the dams, sometimes to a disastrous degree. In this volume, a diverse group of experts?involved for years with the Nam Theun 2 dam in Laos?issue an urgent call for critical reassessment of the approach to, and rationale for, these kinds of large infrastructure projects in developing countries.In the 2000s, as the World Bank was reeling from revelations of past hydropower failures, it nonetheless promoted the enormous Nam Theun 2 project. NT2, the Bank believed, offered a new, wiser model of dam development that would alleviate poverty, protect the environment, engage locally affected people in a transparent fashion, and stimulate political transformation. This was a tall order. For the first time, this book shows in detail why, despite assertions of success from the World Bank and other agencies involved in the project, the dam's true story has been one of substantial loss for affected villagers and the regional environment. Nam Theun 2 is an important case study that illustrates much broader problems of global development policy. …

Maps, colour photographic plates, xxvi + 435pp, notes, bibliography, index. People, Livelihoods and Development in the Xekong River Basin of Laos is a wide-ranging study that provides an overview of the area's history and geography as well as the cultures and local livelihood systems of the multiethnic people living there. Central to the study is a detailed description of the acute social, cultural, economic and ecological challenges locals are facing as a result of the rapid changes now taking place in the region. While these changes are being made in the name of 'development', in reality they often involve conflicts between outsiders and local communities over the use of the area's natural resources. Taking a critical political ecology approach, the authors examine the complicated links between livelihoods and development. The book provides a sobering picture of the potential vulnerability of local cultures, livelihood systems and the natural environment to be negatively impacted, were uncontrolled globalization and outside market forces to continue to radically transform the Xekong River Basin.…

Soft cover. Etat : Fine. 1st Edition. 185 pages : illustrations ; 21 cm ; color illustrated stiff paper wrappers ; ISBN 9780984251643, 0984251642 OCLC 526537728 ; Sam Jonston is a stone-solid great jurist, a top-notch writer and a storyteller of t he first rank. His Why Judges Wear Robes is one fine book, a perfect mix of wisdom, humor, insight and entertainment."; Retired Campbell County Circuit Judge J. Samuel Johnston apparently has a local runaway bestseller on his hands with a self-published collection of laugh-out-loud stories about life in the courtroom. He sold out of the first run of 650 copies, selling them himself at book signings and at his home. "My house looked like a crack house, with people coming and going all day," he said. An Alabama native who earned his law degree at the University of Virginia, Johnston practiced only four years before going on the general district bench in 1977. He was the youngest district court judge in Virginia, and held the same distinction as a circuit judge when he was elevated to that court in 1981. The book offers collections of short stories - some charming, some thought-provoking, but most wickedly funny. The consistent style lifts the language well above that of most self-published works. A word of caution - some of Johnston's humor derives from the earthy language of the criminal defendants who visited his courtroom. "Why Judges Wear Robes" may not be the best choice to show Mom how entertaining law practice is. Nevertheless, Johnston uses a rifle, not a shotgun, when he takes aim with the R-rated words. He sprinkles the salty language-not for any forced "atmosphere"-but only to hit the mark with his punch lines. For someone who has signed the death warrants for four men, Johnston deliberately sticks to the lighter side for this collection of memoirs. "I left out all the gruesome stuff. I didn't put any murders, rapes or robberies in there. I wanted people to laugh, not cry," he said, adding, "Believe me, there's plenty to cry about in court." --Peter Vieth, VA Lawyers Weekly, 2010 ; SIGNED presentation on title page ; FINE. Book.…
