Christopher Goscha resituates the Vietnamese revolution and war
against the French into its Asian context. Breaking with
nationalist and colonial historiographies which have largely locked
Vietnam into Indochinese or 'nation-state' straightjacket, Goscha
takes Thailand as his point of departure for exploring how the
Vietnamese revolution was intimately linked to Asia between the
birth of the 'save the king movement' in 1885 and the Battle of
Dien Bien Phu in 1954. Goscha's geo-historical approach to the
Vietnamese war opens up the exciting possibility of wider
comparisons with similar war economies in Indonesia, Algeria, and
post-1954 Vietnam among others.
