Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Politik - Internationale Politik - Region: Südasien, einseitig bedruckt, Note: keine, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster (Institut für Politikwissenschaft), Veranstaltung: Democratic Peace Theory, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The Bertelsmann Foundation states that Vietnam, much like China, shows the tendency ofdelinking economic development from the transformation towards more democracy. Theystress the fact that the responsible elites avoid political openness while aiming at swifttransformation towards a market economy. Furthermore, they claim that these developmentsare symptomatic for the region and that their economic success makes this style of polityand politics attractive to others (Bertelsmann Foundation 2008). This typical euro-centristview of the Asian developing economies has the idea of input-legitimacy at its center.However, the legitimacy of politics and policies in low-income countries is much moredependent on their outcomes in terms of inclusive growth and poverty alleviation. The leadingquestion is therefore: is Vietnam able to significantly improve the income and consequently,the well-being of the majority of its population, and can its development be a model for theregion?This paper will explore Vietnam s record of development, poverty reduction and inequality incomparison to its neighbor states. The following part will examine key policies andunderlying reforms that were conductive to pro-poor growth in Vietnam as well as remainingchallenges.
