| Abstract: | "Vietnam: Navigating a Rapidly Changing Economy, Society, and Political Order" is a collection of essays edited by Börje Ljunggren and Dwight H. Perkins that provides a comprehensive overview of Vietnam's economic, social, and political landscape. The book focuses on Vietnam's economic development, foreign relations, institutional reform, poverty reduction, and challenges in achieving its ambitious goals. It also examines the country's political system, civil society, education, health, and family dynamics. The authors highlight the need for further reforms and a stronger domestic private sector to unlock Vietnam's full potential. While the book offers valuable insights, more research is needed to address the future challenges and opportunities facing Vietnam. [Extracted from the article] |
