Andrea Pia is Assistant Professor in Anthropology at the London School of Economics. His first book manuscript follows Yunnanese hydro-engineers, street-level bureaucrats and embattled rural residents as they negotiate with the mounting pressures of China’s many water crises. His new ethnographic project explores the emerging antagonism between indigenous environmental politics and the infrastructural élan of China’s water industry as it moves to redesign the increasingly endangered flow of the Mekong River.
