Millions depend on the Mekong. The river is the focus of wide-ranging debates over development strategy, governance, legal issues, and environmental management. This bibliography has been compiled by a team of people actively involved in these issues in the region. The entries include works not only in English and European languages but also in Burmese, Japanese, Mandarin, Thai, and Vietnamese covering history, culture, natural resources, economy, social issues, politics, and security. The volume also lists leading journals, multimedia sources, websites, and organizations. This book is an indispensable aid for anyone interested in the Mekong.
