Richly informed by in-depth field and archival research, this book
offers a synthetic and accessible analysis of contemporary Vietnam.
After decades of war and a socialist transformation, the country
has moved toward a market economy. Echoing that shift, Vietnamese
society itself has undergone significant changes, marked by
increasing socioeconomic disparities among regions and within
localities, greater unrest both in urban and rural areas, and a
revitalization of religious and folk rituals. Moving beyond the
standard emphasis on the Vietnam War and Vietnamese politics and
economy, this volume provides a historically grounded examination
of the dynamics of contemporary society and state-society
relations. Within that framework, the contributors explore the
dynamics of economic reforms, socioeconomic inequality,
environmental changes, gender and ethnic relations, migration,
media, and ritual. Their work will be of interest to all those
studying Southeast Asia, socialist and post-socialist societies,
agrarian transformation, international development, as well as the
Vietnam War.
