{"pk":3307,"title":"Review of Water, Culture, & Power: Local Struggles in a Global Context by John Donahue and Barbara Rose Johnston","subtitle":null,"abstract":"This book captures the constraints and inevitable trade-offs associated with the intricate combination of politics, economic development, local identity and huge investment in water resources. In a series of essays, the conflicts, players, historical context and effects of water projects on communities throughout the world are described. The case studies are comprehensive, but slightly U.S.-centric. They include cases from South Texas, the Pacific Northwest, the Colorado River, Central Arizona and Tennessee, as well as major projects in Zimbabwe, Mexico, Honduras, and the Middle East.","language":"en","license":null,"keywords":[{"word":"Culture"},{"word":"planning"},{"word":"Humanities"},{"word":"sociology"}],"section":"Book Reviews","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0g39r4sh","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Caitlin","middle_name":"","last_name":"Dyckman","name_suffix":"","institution":"","department":"None"}],"date_submitted":"2011-12-06T20:59:15Z","date_accepted":"2011-12-06T20:59:15Z","date_published":"2011-12-06T21:08:27Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"","type":"","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ucb_crp_bpj/article/3307/galley/2088/download/"}]}
