Allen F. Isaacman and Barbara S. Isaacman Dams, Displacement, and the Delusion of Development Cahora Bassa and Its Legacies in Mozambique, 1965–2007 “At last a comprehensive, historically deep, and ecologically knowledgeable study of a great dam. The Isaacmans brilliantly show how, all along the Zambezi below the Cahora Bassa Dam, whole worlds of riparian life … have been stilled. They recover the voices silenced by the fear and violence deployed by states devoted to the care and feeding of this mega-project. Unparalleled in its sweep, depth and attention to the lived experience of all its victims.” — James C. Scott, Yale University, author of Seeing Like a State “The Isaacmans’ book is a classic, comprehensive account of how a large dam, in this case Mozambique’s most important ‘development’ project when completed, initiated a large-scale land and water grab that has adversely, and unacceptably, affected the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people living in the lower Zambezi Basin.” — Thayer Scudder, California Institute of Technology “(Dams, Displacement and the Delusion of Development), which is rich with first-hand quotes of people directly impacted by the massive scheme, analyzes the social, environmental, and economic Winnie Madikizela-Mandela failures of this huge dam project.
