{"product_id":"vietnams-development-strategies-pietro-masina-9780415343114","title":"Vietnam's Development Strategies","description":"\u003cp\u003eTaking a developmental approach, this book critically reviews Vietnam's reform process and shows how the country's reform agenda is still dominated by a 'developmental orthodoxy' inspired by a post-Washington consensus. The author argues that a wider debate is needed in order to give national policy makers the full spectrum of alternatives to support well-informed policy decisions. In particular, the book indicates that two issues central for any analysis of the Vietnamese development reform process are substantially underdeveloped in the current scientific debate: the experience of the East Asian developmental state and the question of socialism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePresenting a way of thinking about Vietnam that goes beyond the orthodox, the book sets out the various paradigms through which the Vietnamese economy can be analyzed. This is a welcome addition to the literature and will appeal to both practitioners working in the field and the academic community in Southeast Asian studies, economics and development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pietro Masina\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415343119\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415343114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.48h x 4.36w x 0.65d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2007 pg. 108","brand":"Pietro Masina","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136075149567,"sku":"9780415343114","price":57.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_200c302c-2f65-48d1-91b5-78bc32b11135.jpg?v=1770160344","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vietnams-development-strategies-pietro-masina-9780415343114","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
