Mekong border trade is currently undergoing a period §of change where many agencies across the borders §have been impacted physically and socially. This §book takes a critical look into the transborder §trade operations between Thailand and Laos along the §Mekong river. By exploring changes and adaptation §occurring at the subregional, national, and local §levels, it shows how the pragmatic practices of §negotiation among different actors have been §performed within the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) §changing trade regime.§§The book argues that the complex trade relations §based on social connections across the border have §placed different agencies on both sides of the §border in different positions where they can make §use of unequal power relations differently. The §Mekong border riverscape is a unique space where §people make use of its border porosity and fluidity §of river for their livelihood. The Mekong boat §traders are not only a part of the border §riverscape, but also active agents in defining and §redefining the significance of the Mekong itself §though their own space and identity construction.
