Klappentext
Vietnam has one of the longest and most resilient national histories in Asia. For more than a thousand years it was dominated by China, then colonized by France, then divided and devastated by war, and yet Vietnamese culture and national identity survived it all. This book traces the full history of Vietnam from ancient times to the present, moving well beyond the American War that still defines Western understanding of the country.
Covering the early kingdoms of the Red River Delta, the millennium of Chinese rule and the repeated revolts against it, the French colonial period, the First and Second Indochina Wars, the reunification of 1975, and the Doi Moi economic reforms that transformed the country in the 1980s and 1990s, the book offers a comprehensive account of Vietnamese history written for a general English-speaking readership.
Contents:
