Why did the Vietnamese accept certain Chinese institutions and
yet explicitly reject others? How did Vietnamese cultural
borrowings from China alter the dynamics of traditional relations
between Vietnam, Siam, Laos, and Cambodia? How did Vietnam's
smaller Southeast Asian environment modify and distort classical
East Asian institutions?
Woodside has answered these questions in this well-received
political and cultural study. This first real comparison of the
civil governments of two traditional East Asian societies on an
institution-by-institution basis is now reissued with a new
preface.
