What kind of economic structure is vietnam?

Question

what I mean is it a capitalist country? A socialist country? Market Socialism? Can you please give me the website were you found the information.

Answer 1

Vietnam's economy had been central control (communist) from the end of the war until 1985. By that time, it was obvious that such an economic system wasn't working. Vietnam was the third poorest country in the world.

Doi Moi (reform) started in 1985 to shift the economy from central control to market control, and had recently shown great success.

Vietnam currently has a market controlled economic system, and is now the second fastest growing economy in the world.

Answer 2

Why do you consider the movement to have been particularly successful in the '70s? The events of the '70s were the culmination of work that started as far back as the '50s. One of the key things was Lyndon Johnson's "Great Society" legislation of '63-'64 which put the prestige of the White House behind the Civil Rights movement, and, as a side effect, gave the South to the Republicans. It was the momentum from that impetus that lead to the legislation of the '70s, but also sparked the backlash the lead to Nixon's election and the Republicans reclaiming the White House. The only real Feminist activity unique to the '70s was their attempt at an Equal Rights Amendment, which failed. They've been pretty much on the sidelines since. How much actual Feminist agenda legislation has been passed in the last 35 years? They're mostly fighting just keep what they got then, most notably Roe vs. Wade, which happened in January of '73, and was still in sufficient danger of being overturned to be a campaign point in the last election, so even that can hardly be called an unqualified success.

Similar to China, I guess you'd call it Market Communism
