Shanghai, China Summer 1994 Mr. Peter Bird Martin Executive Director Institute of Current World Affairs 4 West Wheelock Street Hanover, NH 03755 U.S.A. Dear Peter, "How could it be possible that the Chinese government has still decided to build the dam at all with the great impact on the environment, cultural relics and migration?" Tony asked me when we stood on. the deck enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Xiling Gorge in the early morning of our last day ofthe cruise. "Is it a silly question?" Tony wanted to have my opinion. "No, not at all," I told Tony. "This is also the question that has puzzled me for several years." When I was a graduate student at Princeton, I intended to write a term paper on the feasibility of the Three Gorges Dam. But later I found it was extremely difficult to get information concerning the dam project because any data related to Cheng Li is a an ICWA fellow studying the political economy of the coast of China.
