Więcej o książce

The book explores the social construction of water quality in the Blesbokspruit River, influenced by stakeholders amid the challenges of acid mine drainage. It employs social constructionism to highlight how perceptions of water are shaped by historical mining contexts, current practices, and varying interests. Findings reveal that stakeholders recognize human impacts on the river's physical state, and differing definitions of water quality lead to diverse treatment preferences. The narrative emphasizes that truths about water are subjective and contingent on individual perspectives and purposes.
