題名 Four Faces of Vietnamese Communism: Small Countries` Institutional Choice under Hegemony 作者 孫采薇
Sun, Tsai-Wei貢獻者 國關第二所 日期 1998 上傳時間 26-May-2014 17:22:26 (UTC+8) 摘要 Since 1975, Vietnamese communism has changed face three times. These frequent and radical institutional permutations have been unprecedented among communist countries. This paper argues that hegemonic dependence, domestic economic imperative, and elite idealism are the three main factors that determine Vietnam`s institutional configuration. Among the three, dependence on a hegemon means the dominance of the developmental model and institutional preferences of that hegemon. Only when there is no hegemonic dependence do domestic economic imperative and elite idealism emerge as the crucial factors in determining institutional arrangements. Historically there have been four developmental stages for Vietnam`s communist regime: independent socialism (1975–1977), orthodox socialism (1978–1985), glasnost socialism (1986–1990), and market socialism (1991–now). Among the four stages, orthodox socialism and glasnost socialism are the direct result of Hanoi`s dependence on Moscow. After examining Vietnam`s historical experience, we conclude that small countries` institutional choice under hegemon is extremely limited, but they regain latitude when hegemonic dependence is removed. 關聯 Communist and Post-Communist Studies, 31(4), 381-399 資料類型 article dc.contributor 國關第二所 en_US dc.creator (作者) 孫采薇 zh_TW dc.creator (作者) Sun, Tsai-Wei en_US dc.date (日期) 1998 en_US dc.date.accessioned 26-May-2014 17:22:26 (UTC+8) - dc.date.available 26-May-2014 17:22:26 (UTC+8) - dc.date.issued (上傳時間) 26-May-2014 17:22:26 (UTC+8) - dc.identifier.uri (URI) http://nccur.lib.nccu.edu.tw/handle/140.119/66276 - dc.description.abstract (摘要) Since 1975, Vietnamese communism has changed face three times.
