  • Between the Party-State and the Global Order: The Evolution of Civil Society in Vietnam in Historical Perspective

    Open Access•Thao Dinh, Tuong Vu•ARTICLE•Journal of Current Southeast…•2026

    This article examines the broad evolution of civil society in Vietnam in the last three decades within the context of global and domestic political changes. As the country became closely tied to the global economy and society, civil society underwent a rapid expansion before the ruling communist party recently deemed it a threat and suppressed it. The dramatic rise and recent retreat of civil society raise important questions about the possibilit…

  • War and Society in North Vietnam, 1964–1974

    Tuong Vu•ARTICLE•Journal of Vietnamese Studies•2026

    How were ordinary people in North Vietnam affected by the Second Indochinese War, and what did they feel about it? Drawing from a variety of hitherto unused Vietnamese-language sources, including archival documents, newspapers, memoirs, diaries, and an interview, this article tries to answer these questions. These sources suggest that war at first had a limited integrative effect on society as the party-state sought to mobilize more human and mat…

    Open Access•Antoine Coppolani, Gregory A Daddis et al.•BOOK•The Cambridge History of the…•2024

    The third and final volume of The Cambridge History of the Vietnam War examines key domestic, regional, and international developments in the period before and after the war's end, including its legal, environmental, and memorial legacies. The latter stages of the Vietnam War witnessed its apex as a Cold War crucible. The Sino-Soviet dispute, Sino-American rapprochement, Soviet-American détente, and global counter-culturalism served in various wa…

  • The Cambridge History of the Vietnam War

    Open Access•Liam C Kelley, Hue-Tam Ho Tai et al.•BOOK•The Cambridge History of the…•2024

    When, how, and why did the Vietnam War begin? Although its end is dated April 30, 1975, there is no agreement as to when it began. The Vietnam War was an enormously complex conflict and while any comprehensive reckoning must include the role of the US, it was not an 'American War'. This volume presents the scholarship that has flourished since the 1990s to situate the war and its origins within longer chronologies and larger interpretative perspe…

  • The Cambridge History of Nationhood and Nationalism

    This major new reference work with contributions from an international team of scholars provides a comprehensive account of ideas and practices of nationhood and nationalism from antiquity to the present. It considers both continuities and discontinuities, engaging critically and analytically with the scholarly literature in the field. In volume II, leading scholars in their fields explore the dynamics of nationhood and nationalism's interactions…

  • Building a Republican Nation in Vietnam, 1920–1963

    Open Access•Phong Tuấn Hoàng, Nu-Anh Tran et al.•BOOK•Building a Republican Nation in…•2022

    Western observers have long considered communism to be synonymous with Vietnam’s modern historical experience. Eager to make sense of the North Vietnamese victory in the Vietnam War, scholars and journalists have spilled much ink on the history of Vietnamese communists. But this preoccupation has obscured the diversity of ideas and experiences that defined Vietnam in the twentieth century, in which communism represented just one of many tendencie…

    In this article, I propose a historically grounded, regionally framed, and holistically constructed framework and make three interrelated claims about the strengths and vulnerabilities of surviving communist regimes in Asia. First, these regimes’ resilience today has historical origins in the communist revolutions that founded not only the regimes but also modern nations and states. This foundation provided these regimes with ideological, symboli…

    This special issue focuses on the resilience of the communist regimes in Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, and China. Three decades after the collapse of the Soviet Bloc, all four not only survived a hostile post-communist world dominated by liberal capitalism but have thrived economically. The five articles in this special issue hope to build on existing scholarship on authoritarian resilience while contributing in the following ways. First, by adopting …

    In conversation with other essays in this collection but with a focus on Vietnam within a regional East Asian perspective, this essay explores the great significance of Marxist and Leninist legacies by reviewing the historical contexts in which Marxist and Leninist movements emerged as contenders in national politics, and the creation and evolution of socialist institutions where communists took power. Those institutions helped communist regimes …

  • In the Service of World Revolution: Vietnamese Communists’ Radical Ambitions through the Three Indochina Wars

    Tuong Vu•ARTICLE•Journal of Cold War Studies•2019•Cited by: 2•References: 3

    The terms “decolonization” and “Cold War” refer to specific processes and periods in the international system, but they do not capture the full agency of local actors such as Vietnamese Communists. Based on recently available archival materials from Hanoi, this article maps those terms onto Vietnamese Communist thinking through four specific cases. The declassified materials underscore the North Vietnamese leaders’ deep commitment to a radical wo…

    By tracing the evolving worldview of Vietnamese communists over 80 years as they led Vietnam through wars, social revolution, and peaceful development, this book shows the depth and resilience of their commitment to the communist utopia in their foreign policy. Unearthing new material from Vietnamese archives and publications, this book challenges the conventional scholarship and the popular image of the Vietnamese revolution and the Vietnam War …

  • The Revolutionary Path to State Formation in Vietnam

    Tuong Vu•ARTICLE•Journal of Vietnamese Studies•2016•Cited by: 3

    This essay examines the revolutionary path of modern state formation in Vietnam under the Vietnamese Communist Party. I argue that the party’s radical ideology and practices shaped the path of state formation by creating particular opportunities and conundrums in five key aspects of state formation: legitimization, establishing sovereignty, territorialization, creating a centralized bureaucracy, and monopolizing violence. The revolutionary state …

    This essay compares the experience of workers and workplace politics under communism in the Soviet Union, Poland, East Germany, China, and Vietnam. State–labour relations in these contexts were fraught with tension from the start. Workers’ experience varied widely over time and space. Nevertheless, all workers were subject to state-imposed forms of domination at the workplace and in society at large. This domination was the effect of a powerful i…

    This paper explains the post-Cold War surge of nationalism in Southeast Asia and discusses its significance for regional peace and cooperation. As argued, the growth of nationalism as a form of mass politics has different causes in each Southeast Asian context where it occurs, but at the regional level the phenomenon can be explained by three factors: the failure of earlier nationalist movements to fully deliver their promises; a shift in the int…

    Is the analysis of patron-client networks still important to the understanding of developing country politics or has it now been overtaken by a focus on 'social capital'?

    Cold War historians have neglected the significance of the year 1948 for Indochina. Based on new sources, this paper shows critical shifts in politics within the Vietnamese nationalist movement in 1948. These were the result of converging developments during late 1947 and early 1948, including changes in international politics, in French–Vietnamese relations, and in the relationship between non-communist and communist leaders within the Việt Minh…
