This chapter reviews the literature on regime theory to inform the analysis on effectiveness of maritime regimes in the Indian Ocean as a regional unit of analysis. The chapter integrates the different schools of thought on regime theory and applies structuration theory to emphasise the actor–structure interplay across space and time.
