Exploring the concept of 'the commons' in both English and Chinese contexts, this book delves into its philosophical and theoretical dimensions. It encompasses various forms of commons, including resources, culture, and social capital, and examines its application in hydropower developments along the Lancang River. The author highlights the dual-dimensional nature of the concept in China, emphasizing the interplay between public authority and communal sharing. The analysis reveals how flexible power structures can promote shared prosperity while addressing the challenges of competing interests among stakeholders.
