This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC
BY-NC-SA 3.0 IGO licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship
Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected
open access locations. Many developing countries-Viet Nam
included-continue to struggle to raise incomes per capita. A common
feature of the growth and development process is a fundamental
change in the pattern of economic activity, as households
reallocate labour from traditional agriculture to more productive
forms of agriculture and modern industrial and service sectors.
Broad structural transformation and widespread poverty reduction is
the combined result of these large-scale shifts in work and labour
allocation when they realise desired development goals. The roots
of this volume grow from when the first pilot Viet Nam Access to
Resources Household Survey (VARHS) was carried out in 2002. The
success of this inspired the Central Institute of Economic
Management (CIEM) in Hanoi, the Institute of Policy and Strategy
for Agriculture and Rural Development (CAP-IPSARD), the Institute
of Labour Science and Social Affairs (ILSSA), and the Development
Economics Research Group (DERG) of the University of Copenhagen,
together with Danida and later on UNU-WIDER, to plan and carry out
a more ambitious VARHS from 2006, increasing coverage and
representativeness to more than 2,150 families and 12 provinces
across the various regions of Viet Nam. The VARHS covering these
very same households had by 2014 been carried out five times, i.e.
every two years. It is on this high quality panel data foundation
and almost 15 years of study and policy work using the VARHS data
the present volume builds, in its effort to bring out the essential
rural micro-economic characteristics and insights of a dynamic
South-East Asian economy in transition from a centrally planned
towards a more market based economy.
