This review is from: Village in Vietnam (Paperback)
As the Vietnam War was ongoing, Hickey was able to conduct an intensive study of a village in the south. He gives the reader an appreciation of the rural culture then prevalent. By looking at such issues like the kinship relations between villagers. And the various livelihoods possible in the village.
In today's Vietnam, some of these observations are probably still accurate. But reading the book, the reader might be struck by the poverty of village life. Very limited education was available for people to better themselves. And even with an education, there was little to apply it to in situ. |
