ABSTRACT This article shows how Bangladesh and India intentionally maintain the status quo for the Brahmaputra River at the transboundary level, using material and ideational resources. Results show that India wants to reduce its hegemonic vulnerabilities and Bangladesh aims to maintain its control over the Brahmaputra river, simultaneously building its technical and negotiation skills. We conclude that the underlying processes of maintaining the status quo can be comprehended as ‘non-decision making’. The analysis presented will help policy actors to push towards a forward-looking climate change adaptation planning for the Brahmaputra River.

非决定也是决定:孟加拉国和印度在布拉马普特拉河上的权力相互作用

摘要 本文展示了孟加拉和印度如何有意地利用物质和概念资源在跨境层面维持雅鲁藏布江的现状。结果表明,印度希望减少其霸权脆弱性,而孟加拉国则希望保持对布拉马普特拉河的控制,同时培养其技术和谈判技巧。我们得出结论,维持现状的基本过程可以理解为“非决策”。所提供的分析将帮助政策参与者推动针对雅鲁藏布江的前瞻性气候变化适应规划。
