Editorial Reviews

Review

...provides a useful description of a successful land reform and the economic and social benefits that resulted from it.>>>> (Journal Of Asian Studies )

Callison has chosen to concentrate on economic issues, which really are important and will constitute a vital part of the background in any future study of the contest between Thieu and the Communists. He handles these economic issues with great skill:he deals well with the human reality of the Vietnamese village; at the same time, he understands his mathematical models and diagrams better than do most scholars who attempt to use such in this field. This book should be read both by those interested inthe economics of land reform and by those concerned with what happened to the Vietnamese countryside in the early 1970s.>> (Pacific Affairs )
