Was There a Viable “Third Force” in the Vietnam War
Sophie Quinn-Judge, The Third Force in the Vietnam War: The Elusive Search for Peace, 1954–75. London: I.B. Tauris, 2017. 336 pp. $110.00.Sophie Quinn-Judge makes an original and valuable contribution to Vietnam War scholarship by excavating the nearly forgotten—and largely unnoticed at the time—story of Vietnamese, mostly in the South, who waged a forlorn and ultimately doomed struggle to forge a “third way” between the Communism promoted by Han…
Remembering the End of the Vietnam-American War
The end of the American-Vietnam War came suddenly on April 30, 1975. Among the few Western observers who stayed on after the ceasefire were a few Quaker volunteers, working for the American Friends Service Committee. The couple working as “Saigon Representatives,” Paul and Sophie Quinn-Judge, were able to observe the chaotic surrender of the South Vietnamese troops, as they tore off their uniforms and handed in their rifles. They stayed on in Sai…
The Cambridge History of Communism
The second volume of The Cambridge History of Communism explores the rise of Communist states and movements after World War II. Leading experts analyze archival sources from formerly Communist states to re-examine the limits to Moscow's control of its satellites; the de-Stalinization of 1956; Communist reform movements; the rise and fall of the Sino-Soviet alliance; the growth of Communism in Asia, Africa and Latin America; and the effects of the…

The Third Force in the Vietnam War
It was the conflict that shocked America and the world, but the struggle for peace is central to the history of the Vietnam War. Rejecting the idea that war between Hanoi and the US was inevitable, the author traces North Vietnam’s programs for a peaceful reunification of their nation from the 1954 Geneva negotiations up to the final collapse of the Saigon government in 1975. She also examines the ways that groups and personalities in South Vietn…

Ideological Influences on the Revolutionary High Tide
Over the years, Hanoi historians have presented different views of the role of communist organizers in the events of 1930–31. Thanks to the opening of the Comintern archives, we can now see that in 1929–30 there was a strong shift in international communism towards revolutionary violence in all parts of the world. This paper discusses the ideological precedents and influences reaching Vietnam from Russia and the Comintern, as well as from the Chi…

Vietnam's Bumpy Road to Reform
As in China, political and intellectual reform in Vietnam has lagged behind the stunning transformation of the economy
The Third Indochina War
The Ideological Debate in the DRV and the Significance of the Anti-Party Affair, 1967–68
This essay examines the links between the ideological debates in the communist world and the events surrounding the decision to stage the 1968 Tet Offensive in Vietnam. It is based on memoirs, documents from the Public Record Office in London, and some documents from edited Vietnamese collections, as well as Vietnamese journals from the period in question. For analysts of DRV politics in the 1960s, there is still comparatively little in the way o…
Women in the Early Vietnamese Communist Movement
This article looks at the development of attitudes towards women within the early communist movement in Vietnam. Using the careers of two female militants as examples, it contrasts the enduring patriarchal view of women within the party with an apparent freedom of sexual relations among party members in the late 1920s and early 1930s. It concludes that, far from being liberated from patriarchy, women who joined the party had to sacrifice their in…
