Vietnam is a country on the move. Yet contemporary Vietnam's
education system is at a crossroads. Rapid economic growth has
permitted rapid increases in the scale and scope of formal
schooling, but there is a prevailing sense that the current
education system is inadequate to the country's needs. Sunny
assessments of Vietnam's ""achievements"" in the sphere of
education have given way to a realization that the country lacks
skilled workers. Some have even spoken of an ""education crisis"".
These are not abstract concerns. What is occurring in Vietnam's
education system today has broad implications for the country's
social, political, economic, and cultural development. Featuring
contributions from scholars and policy analysts from within and
outside Vietnam, Education in Vietnam addresses key issues
pertaining to the political economy of education, the provision and
payment for primary and secondary education, and the development of
vocational and tertiary education. The book marks an important
contribution to existing understandings of Vietnam's education
system and contributes to broader understandings of social
conditions and change in contemporary Vietnam.
