Hydroelectric Power Generation in Austria: a History of Archetypal Conflicts with Nature Conservation
Hydroelectric Power Generation in Austria: A History of Archetypal Conflicts with Nature Conservation Christina Pichler-Koban Introduction “Modern life is in many ways characterized by the ready availability of energy.”1 The reliance of Western-style societies on technical power supply net- works is increasing in virtually all areas of life. The investment of consid- erable resources is needed to make energy available, and this investment competes with the potential alternative use of these resources. This is the topic of this contribution. The majority of people have, for centuries, lived on what nature pro- vided readily or on what peasants gained from it through arduous work. This situation changed profoundly around the end of the nineteenth cen- tury, when Western society entered the age termed “High Modernism” by American political scientist James C. Scott.2 This period was marked by a strong belief in technological progress and the concept of man being able to gain mastery over nature. Nature should be manageable and controllable; according to this technocratic notion of the world, nature was more or less the raw material for modern engineers, technicians, and planners to process and improve.3 Our concept of nature has changed as an anti-technocratic shift of paradigms developed along with a series of events—some of which will be explored in more detail below. Rivers are multi-functional systems. They ensure the provision of water and have for centuries been used as transport routes. They have always been the reason for people to settle and establish businesses along their banks; they provide food, and they are used for a variety of recreational activities.
