在本文中，我分析了1967年至1989年间捷克斯洛伐克-越南劳动力交换计划的变化，特别是捷克斯洛伐克对怀孕越南工人的国家政策。在这个项目中，捷克斯洛伐克政府承诺提供福利，但却面临着社会主义国际主义的挑战。对怀孕的越南工人的政策是捷克斯洛伐克国家重新界定它认为自己有义务提供的护理范围的过程的一部分。两国之间关于如何适当对待怀孕的越南工人的冲突也是捷克斯洛伐克国家社会主义的一个更普遍的特征的产物：提高（或至少维持）生产力的压力与提高生育率的压力之间的紧张关系。该计划逐渐转变为一种更加分散和市场交换的形式，形成了冲突的性质，解决冲突的尝试，以及解决方案的有限效力。
In this article, I analyze changes in the Czechoslovak-Vietnamese labor exchange program between 1967 and 1989, specifically Czechoslovak state policies toward pregnant Vietnamese workers. In the program, the Czechoslovak state's commitment to being a welfare provider was confronted with its commitment to socialist internationalism. The policies toward pregnant Vietnamese workers constituted a part of the process through which the Czechoslovak state was redefining the limits of care it saw itself obligated to provide. The conflict between the two states over the appropriate treatment of pregnant Vietnamese workers was also an outgrowth of a more general feature of Czechoslovak state socialism: the tension between the pressure to increase (or at least maintain) productivity and the pressure to increase fertility. The gradual transformation of the program into a more decentralized and market exchange-like form shaped the nature of the conflict, the attempts to resolve it, and the limited efficacy of the solutions.
