- W963170183 abstract "Drawing mainly on official media sources and scientific and political materials on water diversion in China, this chapter analyses the underlying discursive thought patterns that legitimise the official, i.e. political and scientific elites' drive to dominate nature. It reveals how appeals to 'traditional' Chinese knowledge are deployed within the debate in order to strengthen normative approaches and thereby official and institutional power. Despite official rhetoric conjuring up the 'harmonious coexistence of mankind with nature', the 'modernist' idea of 'dominating nature' is expressed in the governmental representatives' actions and their mind set. Based on the South-North Water Diversion Scheme as a case study, the author argues that the slogan 'harmonious coexistence of mankind with nature' is only understandable as an expression of the government's drive to dominate nature. The slogan of 'harmonious coexistence' functions as a means to redefine modernity to achieve a powerful position in the 'modern' globalised world. Keywords:China; dominating nature; harmonious coexistence; official media sources; political materials; scientific materials; South-North Water Diversion Scheme; water diversion" @default.
