越南是一个经济成功的国家--它从1980年代是世界上最贫穷的国家之一,转变为1990年代增长率最高的国家之一。由于采取了新的以市场为导向的政策,越南从1990年到2000年的平均经济增长率为每年8%,这一增长率伴随着贫困的大幅减少,这是由于入学率的显著增加和儿童营养不良的迅速减少。这本书使用了一组异常丰富的宏观经济和家庭调查数据,研究了几个主题:经济好转的原因和未来增长的前景;经济增长对家庭福利的影响,以消费支出、健康、教育和其他社会经济指标衡量;以及越南贫困的性质,以及旨在减少贫困的政府政策的有效性。尽管这个国家过去取得的成就令人印象深刻,但未来的进步并不能得到保证。
Viet Nam is an economic success story - it transformed itself from a country in the 1980s as one of the poorest in the world, to a country in the 1990s with one of the world's highest growth rates. With the adoption of a new market-oriented policies, Viet Nam averaged an economic growth rate of 8 percent per year from 1990 to 2000, a growth rate accompanied by a large reduction in poverty, stemming from significant increases in school enrollment, and a rapid decrease in child malnutrition. The book uses an unusually rich set of macroeconomic, and household survey data, to examine several topics: the causes of the economic turnaround, and prospects for future growth; the impact of economic growth on household welfare, as measured by consumption expenditures, health, education, and other socioeconomic indicators; and, the nature of poverty in Viet Nam, and the effectiveness of government policies, intended to reduce same. Although the country's past achievements are impressive, future progress is by no means ensured.
