Abstract

This paper tries to use the western theory to analyze the decision making process of the Three Gorges Dam project for the first time. The theoretical framework is built with a political perspective and the rounds model and streams model are adopted. Four decision making rounds are described and the factors that influenced the duration of the long decision making process are figured out. In the end, the recommendation is given to the Chinese government in terms of decision making in the future.
