Land Deactivation Amidst Land Policy Inertia In Northern Vietnam
Drawing on research in rural or peri-urban communes administered by Hanoi, this article discusses “land deactivation” – the withdrawal of farmers from farming – a reform emerging in a long-cultivated rice growing region of Vietnam. This transformation does not fully align with official policy orientations and poses challenges to the state’s strategic objective of maintaining national rice security. The proximate cause of idle and abandoned land i…
Making space for living and livelihoods in Vietnam
Preserving agricultural land for rice cultivation in Vietnam is a national priority. Yet in many areas, farmers continue to repurpose rice land for non‐agricultural uses in violation of state regulations. Drawing on the conceptual framework of ‘everyday politics’ (EP), this paper examines this tension through research conducted in two peri‐urban communes outside Hanoi. It argues that agricultural development objectives are frequently misaligned w…
Determinants of Household Carbon Emissions
The objective of this study is to calculate and analyze the factors that determine household carbon emissions in Vietnam. The study uses a multivariate regression analysis model including variables related to household characteristics and characteristics of the household head based on data from the results of the 2020 Vietnamese household living standards survey conducted by the Vietnam General Statistics Office every 2 years. Carbon emissions or…

Injecting drug use increases the risk of death in HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy in Vietnam
The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) epidemic remains a major public health issue worldwide. In Vietnam, the HIV epidemic is essentially driven by people who inject drugs (PWID). This study aims to compare mortality and loss to follow-up (LTFU) between PWID and other patients. From June 2017 to April 2018, HIV-infected adults were enrolled in a prospective cohort from time of ART initiation in six provinces of North Vietnam. The end date was Ju…
Adapting the World Health Organization iSupport Dementia program to the Indonesian socio-cultural context
Background: Providing care for people with dementia (PwD) without sufficient understanding of the condition might negatively affect the wellbeing of the caregivers, given the lengthy care and progressive nature of the disease. The iSupport for dementia developed by World Health Organization (WHO) is a self-administered training manual for caregivers of PwD, adaptable to local cultures and contexts. This manual needs translation and adaptation to …
Retaining the Old Countryside, Embracing the New Countryside
Vietnam’s New Rural Development program envisages the creation of a newly modern rural Vietnam. Drawing on fieldwork, this paper argues that the program has had little bearing on peasant livelihood strategies. The emergence of deagrarianization has not arisen as a result of the program but because of household interest in maintaining a diverse set of income activities. These two contrasting rural realities—the advance of deagrarianization against…
Single Mothers’ Livelihoods in Rural North Central Vietnam
Single mothers in rural North Central Vietnam face many difficulties in earning their livelihoods. Since they deviate from the norms of the patriarchal family, many do not find it easy to obtain support from their own relatives or access livelihood assets from their parents. As units of production, their households lack the support from the relatives of spouses that are normally available to married women and face discrimination in accessing live…
My children are small and my husband works far from home’
This paper explores the links between migration and changes in household agricultural production in Vietnam during the reform period (1986–2012) through a case study of Quỳnh Đôi village, Nghệ An Province. Since reforms were first introduced, many villagers have left Quỳnh Đôi to work in cities, industrial zones or to find employment abroad. The migration process has transformed labour structures and supply, leading to changes in household agricu…
Economic transition without agrarian transformation
Nice to meet you
This paper advocates for a clearer understanding of the politics of introductions and partings in fieldwork by engaging with the geographical literature on the encounter. Conducting research with people in the field presents investigators with unfamiliar and confusing cultural rituals involving how to present oneself, what to say, and how to physically interact with respondents on meeting them for the first time. This is also true during the mome…

Inflated medicine prices in Vietnam
One third of the world's population lacks regular access to essential medicines partly because of the high cost of medicines. In Vietnam, the cost to patients of medicines was 47 times the international reference price for originator brands and 11 times the price for generic equivalents in the public sector. In this article, we report the results of a qualitative study conducted to identify the principal reasons for inflated medicine prices in Vi…
Policy options for pharmaceutical pricing and purchasing
Pharmaceutical expenditure is rising globally. Most high-income countries have exercised pricing or purchasing strategies to address this pressure. Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), however, usually have less regulated pharmaceutical markets and often lack feasible pricing or purchasing strategies, notwithstanding their wish to effectively manage medicine budgets. In high-income countries, most medicines payments are made by the state or …
The Texture of Livelihoods
Through the experience of 30 rural migrants to Hanoi, this paper reconstructs their livelihood histories, linking the experience of our migrant subjects with wider transformations in Vietnam’s economy and society. We argue for an ‘everyday’ political economy that recognises the fluid connections between the state, society and economy, and the individual. While highlighting the indeterminacy and contingency of life, we recognise the wider context …
Becoming and being urban in Hanoi
The discourse of the rural-urban migrant is that of a sojourner in the city, a man or a woman who will almost inevitably return to his or her rural roots and re-engage with farming and village living. In this paper we ask whether rural-urban migrants can 'become' urban and shed their identification as temporary denizens of the city. We develop a conceptual framework that provides five entry points to explore this process of becoming urban, and th…
