A Study On The Engagement Of External Forces In Mekong Transboundary Water Governance

Lancang river after exit from China is called the Mekong river,Mekong river is an important international river,south peninsula is Burma,Laos,Thailand,Cambodia,Vietnam's important link,it is very important to social and economic development of river basin countries,in shipping,fishing,hydropower,agriculture,environment,plays an irreplaceable role in poverty reduction,etc.Mekong river development and utilization of water resources is a matter of countries in economic,social and environmental benefits,around the Mekong river transboundary water resources development and management of river basin have a potential conflict of interest between countries and their desire for cooperation.Since the end of the cold war,the external forces have strengthened the governance of transboundary water resources in the Mekong river,which has complicated the transboundary water management of the Mekong river.China as participation main body in the external forces,the Mekong river basin is China's peripheral diplomacy,"the Belt and Road Initiative" and "Lancang-Mekong river cooperation" of the important areas,strengthen the external forces involved in the analysis of the Lancang-Mekong river water resources cooperation in China has important practical significance.This article takes the external forces to take part in the Mekong River transboundary Water resources governance angle of view,this paper analyzes the current situation of the governance of transboundary water resources in the Mekong River,probes into the composition of external forces,the motivations,fields,ways,characteristics and effects of engagement,reviews and summarizes China's engagement in the governance of transboundary water resources in the Mekong River,and makes recommendations for further China's continued engagement.The first chapter mainly introduces the current situation of the Mekong River transboundary water resources governance,it is found that there are structural contradictions in the utilization of transboundary water resources in the Mekong River,and that the transboundary water resources governance Mechanism is not effective,and there are many environmental and social problems in the governance of transboundary water resources.The second chapter is from the Constitution of the external forces,the motives of engagement,The engagement domain and the way unfolds the narration,has summed up the outside forces engagement to have the main body diversity,the domain omni-directional,the way multiplicity,participates in the persistence,the network cooperation characteristic;Chapter Three explores the positive and negative effects of the engagement of external forces,Positive impact is to promote the Mekong River transboundary water Resources governance knowledge growth and improve national transboundary water resources governance capacity,the negative effect is to disturb the establishment and improvement of the spontaneous mechanism in the Mekong River Basin.The fourth chapter analyzes the present situation of China's engagement in the Mekong River transboundary water resources governance,and identifies the differences between China and other external forces.This paper putsforward the strategies that China should adopt in the governance of transboundary water resources in the Mekong River basin.Through the carding of this paper,it is found that the engagement of external forces intensifies the network of transboundary water resources governance in the Mekong River.The fields,ways and characteristics of the engagement of external forces are different,and they have their own modes of governance,but this does not mean that external forces are "fragmented",which strengthens the relations and interactions between external forces and forms a pattern of networked governance.China is an indispensable participant in the external forces,with the five countries of the Mekong River basin as the developing country,and the Lancang River and the Mekong are the same ecological entity,and by deepening the understanding of the engagement of the external forces,it provides useful experiences,lessons and inspirations for China to deepen the cooperation of transboundary water resources governance.
