Social Mobilization and State-Building in Communist Vietnam (1949–54) Christopher Goscha Professor of International Relations, Université du Québec à Montréal, Canada By choosing to transition to modern, set-piece battle during the second half of the Indochina War, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV) created one of the most socially totalizing wars in order to meet that ambitious goal. This article argues that, while the DRV did indeed create a remarkably mod- ern army of six divisions, the lack of a mechanized logistical system meant that it had to mobilize hundreds of thousands of civilian porters to supply its troops moving across Indochina. To do this, the communist party under- took a massive mobilization drive and simultaneously expanded its efforts to take the state in hand.

  • The Mountain Is High, and the Emperor Is Far Away: States and Smuggling Networks at the Sino-Vietnamese Border
    The Mountain Is High, and the Emperor Is Far Away: States and Smuggling Networks at the Sino-Vietnamese Border Qingfei Yin The intense and volatile relations between China and Vietnam in the dyadic world of the Cold War have drawn scholarly attention to the strategic concerns of Beijing and Hanoi. In this article I move the level of analysis down to the border space where the peoples of the two countries meet on a daily basis. I examine the tug-of-war between the states and smuggling networks on the Sino-Vietnamese border during the second half of the twentieth century and its implications for the present-day bilateral relationship. I highlight that the existence of the historically nonstate space was a security concern for modernizing states in Asia during and after the Cold War, which is an understudied aspect of China’s relations with Vietnam and with its Asian neighbors more broadly. The border issue between China and its Asian neighbors concerned not only territorial disputes and demarcation but also the establishment of state authority in marginal societies. Keywords: smuggler, antismuggling, border, Sino-Vietnamese relations, tax. Historically, the Chinese empire and, to a lesser extent, the Dai Nam empire that followed the Chinese bureaucratic model had heavyweight states with scholar-officials chosen by examination in the Confucian classics (Woodside 1971). However, as the proverb goes, the mountain is high, and the emperor is far away. Vast distances and weak connections existed between the central government and ordinary people. Central authorities thus had little influence over local affairs, including their own street-level bureaucracies.

Review by Gerard Sasges, National University of Singapore. Those of us with an interest in the history of Vietnam should count ourselves lucky. In the space of just four years, three senior historians of Southeast Asia have produced comprehensive studies of Vietnam’s history. After long decades where available surveys all traced their origins to the Cold War, readers are now spoiled for choice with three highly detailed studies based on decades of research by some of the most renowned scholars in their fields: Ben Kiernan’s Việt Nam: A History from Earliest Times to the Present, Christopher Goscha’s Vietnam: A New History, and Keith Taylor’s A History of the Vietnamese. Their appearance in such rapid succession reflects many things: the authors’ personal and professional trajectories, the continued interest of publics and publishers for books on Vietnamese history, and important changes in the field of Vietnamese Studies since the 1990s.

  • Female Academics in Vietnam: What Helps and Hinders Career Advancement
    Female Academics in Vietnam: What Helps and Hinders Career Advancement Hang Thi Viet Vu Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2018 Melbourne Graduate School of Education The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT Adopting a critical feminist approach, this study examines facilitators of and inhibitors to Vietnamese female academics’ advancement. Vietnamese women are considered to have greater freedom than their counterparts in other Asian countries, and Confucianism is often viewed as the main contributor to the persistence of conventional gender roles and norms (Èzbilgin & Syed, 2010; Turley, 1972; United Nations, 2002; A. N. Vo & Harvey, 2009; World Bank, 2011). Publications by the current government also suggest that Vietnamese women enjoy a number of rights and privileges accorded by the communist state. The present study, however, brings to light a more nuanced set of factors impacting women’s place in Vietnamese professional life. To some extent, the findings echo the themes commonly found in the literature regarding the underrepresentation of female academics in senior positions worldwide, including family constraints in terms of unequal share of housework and care work, patriarchal organisational culture, sexist assumptions underlying performance appraisal expectations, and overt sexism. Yet the study found a number of historical, cultural, and political factors that are peculiar to the Vietnamese context. These include propaganda by the communist government portraying women’s roles as ideal domestic worker and carer, so-called benevolent sexism, promotion and retirement policies in higher education, the particular Vietnamese expectations of motherhood including the sociocultural context of Vietnamese mothers’ obsession with children’s education, Vietnamese ‘village culture’, and stressors associated with familial harmony given these expectations.

  • Recentering the United States in the Historiography of American Foreign Relations
    The Scholar Texas National Security Review: Volume 3, Issue 2 (Spring 2020) Print: ISSN 2576-1021 Online: ISSN 2576-1153 RECENTERING THE UNITED STATES IN THE HISTORIOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN FOREIGN RELATIONS Daniel Bessner Fredrik Logevall 38 Recentering the United States in the Historiography of American Foreign Relations In the last three decades, historians of the “U.S. in the World” have taken two methodological turns — the international and transnational turns — that have implicitly decentered the United States from the historiography of U.S. foreign relations. Although these developments have had several salutary effects on the field, we argue that, for two reasons, scholars should bring the United States — and especially, the U.S. state — back to the center of diplomatic historiography. First, the United States was the most powerful actor of the post-1945 world and shaped the direction of global affairs more than any other nation. Second, domestic processes and phenomena often had more of an effect on the course of U.S. foreign affairs than international or transnational processes. It is our belief that incorporating the insights of a reinvigorated domestic history of American foreign relations with those produced by international and transnational historians will enable the writing of scholarly works that encompass a diversity of spatial geographies and provide a fuller account of the making, implementation, effects, and limits of U.S. foreign policy. Part I: U.S. Foreign Relations two trends that have emphasized the former rather After World War II than the latter.

  • Neutralizing Indochina the 1954 Geneva Conference and China's
    Neutralizing Indochina The 1954 Geneva Conference and China’s Efforts to Isolate the United States ✣ Tao Wang The Geneva Conference from April to July 1954 ended the war between France and the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV), which to a great extent was a proxy war between the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the United States. As active participants in the Indochina War, both China and the United States played significant roles in the conference, which led to the Geneva Agreements on Indochina. Yet few works have analyzed the conference from the perspective of U.S.-Chinese relations. Based on declassified documents and memoirs from the PRC, Russia, and Vietnam, as well as sources from the United States and Great Britain, this ar- ticle interprets China’s actions at the Geneva talks in relation to the United States from a multilateral perspective. The article places China’s diplomacy in the broader context of Chinese relations with Western countries and explains the PRC’s policy in the context of its relations with its Communist allies, the Soviet Union and the DRV. The article elucidates Chinese leaders’ goals in Geneva, the tactics they adopted there to realize their objectives, the percep- tions among Chinese officials of U.S. policy toward the conference, and the impact all of this had on Chinese policymaking. The article shows that the PRC aimed to neutralize Indochina to forestall direct U.S. intervention there, which would endanger China’s southwestern flank. Chinese leaders sought to exploit the differences between the United States and its allies the United Kingdom and France, to pressure U.S.

  • The Vietnamese Intellectuals
    Site d'origine David Lan Pham The Vietnamese intellectuals The Vietnamese people are studious. The lettrés have been well respected in society. Some famous scholars were from ordinary families. The Vietnamese were deeply influenced by Confucianism as soon as they got in touch with Chinese culture. Society was composed of four cardinal occupations of which the top was studying. The intellectuals in feudal time. Under the Ngo (939 – 965), Dinh (968 – 980) and Earlier Le (980 – 1009) dynasties almost all the intellectuals were Buddhist monks. The triennial contests took place in 1075 under the Ly. The next year the Quoc Tu Giam (National College) was opened. In 1080 the first Academy was created. The doctoral contest was held in the capital, Thang Long in 1232. The King recruited talented men through the contests. Everybody, regardless of their social classes, could be recruited provided that they passed the contest. In reality, few needy students passed the contest to be appointed by the King. In the olden time there were no public schools. Education was given by retired mandarins or dissatisfied scholars at home. Not many people could send their children to these private schools. On the other hand, they needed their children to help them in farming. After the coup d'etat of 1527 many pro-Le students boycotted the triennial contests organized by the Mac. Some mandarins resigned. Some killed themselves to show their loyalty to the Le. Some tried to resist the Mac to restore the Later Le. It was the beginning of the one hundred-year civil war in our country.
