| Sumario: | This article provides an institutional analysis of the Mekong River Commission and brings to light the institutional dissonances between regional and national decision-making landscapes in the Lower Mekong Basin.

From a scholarly perspective, it questions academic approaches that assume that the state is the sole or primary actor in international relations. |
