| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article presents a case study dealing with the controversy surrounding the construction of an alternative road connecting Danshui with Taibei City. The study serves to elucidate what the key influences are that govern environmental power dynamics between different agents in Taiwan and how these multiple levels of interaction are negotiated by the various players. The authors argue that although environmental policies are, for the most part, mandated from the top, at the local level their implementation can be bypassed, altered or stalled by these various agents. |
