供水香港：地緣政治、水務建設與農業發展（1940-1970 年代）

二戰後香港的供水建設，是在波譎雲詭的冷戰地緣政治環境下完成的。至1970年代末，多項本地大型供水項目相繼竣工，水塘和集水區已佔去香港土地面積近四成。香港水資源不足但土地有限，水務項目在主要農區開展，因此供水系統建設必會損及農業利益。港府本已推展政策，改善新界農民生計，收穩定農業社會之效。及後，大量內地移民抵港，當中不少人選擇在新界從事農耕，港府更希望藉著發展農業吸收勞動力。為對冲接受中方供水、應對地緣政治處境而開展的本地供水項目，與同為化解政治壓力而推行的農業政策，兩者在水土資源的利用上產生衝突。港府如何以有限的水土資源，兼顧供水和農業，魚與熊掌兼得？---------------------------------------------------------------------------------社會科學書籍的讀者多數不會甘心於只看見事情的表面，而希望能夠看透現象 ...
