More specifically, it applied the framework of hydro-hegemony on the hydroelectric Yacyretá Dam, shared by Argentina and Paraguay. By analysing semi-structured interviews and secondary sources, it was found that Argentina aimed to establish its hegemony over Paraguay and to consolidate the Yacyretá Dam's resources during the period under scrutiny.
