Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don Lomax's critically acclaimed Vietnam Journal series returns with all new stories. THIS ISSUE: "The Sniper" - In 1969 the Vietnam War was finally winding down. Journalist Scott Neithammer had already been incountry over two years and had been in the bush with the combat troops since he arrived to cover the war as a freelance reporter. Being there, in the horror, with the 11 Bravos gave him credibility in their eyes. So when he was invited to go along with the troops on a LRRP (Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol) to neutralize a North Vietnamese Major who was extorting outlandish taxes from the local peasant population, it seemed like a good idea at the time... Praise for Vietnam Journal: “Vietnam Journal by Don Lomax is the best comic book portrayal of Vietnam I have ever read. It’s probably one of the best works ever put down in any art form about the war.” - Daniel Robert Epstein

Download or read book The Vietnamese Health Care System in Change written by Kerstin Priwitzer and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 2012 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the last twenty years a large-scale bottom-up privatization has taken place in Vietnam, changing and dismantling the public health care system. This process has led to severe tensions inherent in the transitional society of Vietnam between equity and access to health care support - especially for the poor, elderly, migrants, and ethnic minorities - on the one hand, and its efficiency on the other hand. The book traces the reform efforts to modernize the health care system by the Communist Party of Vietnam and the Vietnamese government. The author bases her findings on little known primary literature and interviews with key stakeholders of the policy network involved in the reform of the health care system, thereby painting an authentic atmospheric picture of the profound changes in the health care system in Vietnam.

Download or read book Poltiical Change in the Third World written by Charles Andrain and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this informative and highly readable book, first published in 1988, Charles Andrain explores the ways in which public policies and socio-political beliefs and structures cause political change in the Third World. The author examines 3 types of political change: (1) transitions in political leaders and their policies, (2) fundamental transformations in political structures, policy priorities, and political strategies for dealing with policy issues; and (3) the impact of economic, education, and health care policies on the society itself (including changes in unemployment, inflation, economic growth, literacy and birth and death rates). In the first part of the book, Professor Andrain presents a general overview of political change in the Third World, explaining how different models of political systems explain the dynamics of political events in Latin America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. In the second part of the book, he then applies these models to specific changes in five developing nations: Vietnam, Cuba, Chile, Nigeria and Iran. The book is unique in its careful blending of a policy focus with a structural analysis of nation states, domestic social groups, and international institutions in the often turbulent regions of the developing world. It thus provides a very useful systematic approach to political developments in the Third World that will be welcomed by students, faculty and general readers.
Download or read book Public Diplomacy in Vietnam written by Vu Lam and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-12 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how Vietnam's leadership conceptualises and conducts public diplomacy (PD) and offers a comparative analysis with regional powers. Drawing on social constructivism as its theoretical framework it investigates the rationale behind an authoritarian regime's implementation of public diplomacy to contribute to a better understanding of the broader framework of foreign-domestic policy. This theoretical and practical exploration of Vietnam's PD in cases of cultural diplomacy, South China Sea diplomacy and online activism situates it in the general academic and theoretical discussion on soft power. Key variables to the conceptualisation and conduct of Vietnam's PD, namely national interest, national identity and changing information technologies, especially the Internet and social media, are also thoroughly investigated. With crosscutting themes ranging from politics and international relations to communication studies, it will appeal to students and scholars of identity politics, populism and nationalism.
