Profit and Poverty in Rural Vietnam: Winners and Losers of a Dismantled Revolution

This book, first published in 1998, studies the social impact of Doi Moi, a policy of economic renovation, on the living conditions in state forest enterprises and agricultural cooperatives in northern Vietnam. It compares the authors’ findings with those of 1987, before the formal adoption of the new economic policies - essentially the opening up of the economy to market forces.
