Water International, 2015, vol. 40, issue 1, 87-99

Abstract: Although formal law plays an increasing role in water governance in China, the political arena has a large influence upon it. This article seeks to provide a new perspective to understand water governance and what role formal laws play during China's transition phase through the lens of the 'Captain of the River', a newly developed water governance instrument in China.
