paperback. Condición: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. In VIETNAM: THE ROOTS OF CONFLICT, Chester A. Bain, a former professor of East Asian Studies presently serving with the United States Information Agency, traces the evolution of this 2300-year-old nation from its ancient origins in the Red River Delta, through the eras of Chinese conquest, national independence, and French colonization, to its twentieth-century partition and present-day upheaval.Examining the region?s intricate past, Bain assesses the influence of a complicated cultural heritage ? a tangle of Confucianism, Buddhism, Catholicism, and native spirit lore; Chinese social and political institutions; and western concepts of individualism, progress, and social mobility ? on the course of events in modern Vietnam. By viewing Vietnam?s present in the perspective of history, the author brings the reader to a clearer understanding of the complex reality of Southeast Asia.
