"Extremely insightful and succinct, this volume shows how badly the Nam Theun 2 dam project has failed across the areas of indigenous rights and development, sustaining fisheries and river life, livelihoods of the displaced, protecting wildlife, and forestry and the commons. An important book." --Michael Goldman, author of Imperial Nature: The World Bank and Struggles for Social Justice in the Age of Globalization
