Elizabeth Economy, director of Asia Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations
Book Description
A Council on Foreign Relations Book
China’s spectacular economic growth over the past two decades has dramatically depleted the country’s natural resources and produced skyrocketing rates of pollution. Environmental degradation in China has also contributed to significant public health problems, mass migration, economic loss, and social unrest. In The River Runs Black, Elizabeth C. Economy examines China’s growing environmental crisis and its implications for the country’s future development.
Drawing on historical research, case studies, and interviews with officials, scholars, and activists in China, Economy traces the economic and political roots of China’s environmental challenge and the evolution of the leadership's response. She argues that China’s current approach to environmental protection mirrors the one embraced for economic development: devolving authority to local officials, opening the door to private actors, and inviting participation from the international community, while retaining only weak central control. The result has been a patchwork of environmental protection in which a few wealthy regions with strong leaders and international ties improve their local environments, while most of the country continues to deteriorate, sometimes suffering irrevocable damage. Economy compares China’s response with the experience of other societies and sketches out several possible futures for the country.

環保類的書籍,是我閱讀方嚮之一,這本書的名字是《一江黑水》實則從中國古代的文化傳統、西方的環保史、中國環保現狀(主要還是圍繞水汙染展開)以及現代環保大同之下的一些組織作為。其中談到的中國某些可人為避免的汙染,由於官員個人職責疏忽或責任感缺失導緻,讓我驚訝和...

評分這本書看完蠻久瞭,今天要還迴去瞭,覺得還是隨便寫點吧。這幾天感冒瞭,今天宅在寢室,倒也舒服。隻是這寢室麵積太小瞭,連個走動的空間都沒有,住在一樓,窗外又沒什麼景色,不過還好有網絡還有書籍,至少思維並不會受束縛。 《The river runs black--The environmenta...
評分很多文獻引用和發展過程的梳理,可以有不少擴展閱讀,值得一讀。 在裏麵我認識瞭唐锡陽先生,梁從誡先生,還有一些環保組織,現在繼續讀唐先生和梁先生的書,開始在環保的路上調研和摸索。不過書中對古時中國的否定不敢認同,古時候的水利設施比現在修的要和諧多瞭吧。
