In the long history of the world, the paths of development of countries have varied greatly. For some small countries, however, Xi from other countries' successes seems to be a shortcut. Many countries aspire to follow in the footsteps of Japan and South Korea and move from poverty to prosperity. Vietnam has also turned to the West in an attempt to achieve this goal. However, why is it difficult for Vietnam to become the next Japan or South Korea even if it is westernized?Let's take a closer look at the institutional basis conflicts.
Vietnam's Dream: Becoming the Next Japan Korea?
From the perspective of world history, many countries aspire to follow the success path of Japan and South Korea and move from poverty to prosperity. As a small country, Vietnam has also thrown itself into the arms of the West, trying to realize its dream of turning around through Westernization. Why, however, is it still difficult for Vietnam to become the next Japan or South Korea, even if it turns to the West?Let's take a look at the complex reasons for this.
Institutional Basis Conflict: Vietnam is different from Japan and South Korea.
The key to the success of Japan and South Korea is that they are inherently part of the Western system, so Westernization is a natural part of their development. By contrast, Vietnam's system is very different from that of the West, especially in contrast to the examples of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. The Soviet Union tried to forcibly westernize, but the result was cultural confusion, identity confusion, and intensification of internal contradictions. Under socialism, the forced westernization of Vietnam is likely to lead to regime overthrow, civil war between the north and the south, and even complete chaos in the country, which is a fundamental problem that cannot be changed.
Disasters caused by different institutional foundations.
Vietnam can only achieve national development by carrying out steady reform and innovation on the basis of adhering to the socialist system. However, outright Westernization is doomed to disastrous consequences, and Western countries will find it difficult to support Vietnam's development. The huge difference in institutional foundations means that if Vietnam wants to become a second Japan or South Korea, it will have to face up to and resolve the conflict of institutional foundations.
Vietnam's right path to development.
For Vietnam, maintaining the country's institutional foundation, maintaining stability, and then carrying out orderly reform and innovation is the right path to achieve development. Such a development path is more feasible and sustainable than outright westernization. Vietnam needs to seek a development approach that suits its own national conditions while maintaining national stability, rather than blindly chasing the Western model.
Conclusion: Vietnam's Development Challenges and Future.
On Vietnam's path to development, the conflict of institutional foundations is an unavoidable problem. Vietnam needs to assess the situation, stick to its own national conditions, abandon the idea of blindly following and meet the challenges ahead. For the development of a country, it is important to learn Xi from the experience of other countries, but it is more important to find a development model that suits us to achieve sustainable prosperity. Vietnam's future road still needs to move forward in a down-to-earth manner and continue to work hard.
Commentary: On Vietnam's development choices and historical lessons.
This article profoundly examines the conflict of institutional foundations that Vietnam faces in its pursuit of development, and why it is difficult to become the next Japan or South Korea even if it turns to the West. Through the analysis of the key factors for the successful development of Japan and South Korea, and the comparison of Vietnam's institutional foundations, this paper draws the conclusion that Vietnam has chosen the right path of adhering to the institutional foundation and steadily reforming.
First, the paper mentions the root causes of the conflict in the institutional basis in an in-depth analysis. Japan and South Korea have been able to succeed in Westernization because they are themselves part of the Western system, which makes Westernization a matter of course in both countries. Vietnam's socialist system is very different from that of the West, and if it is forcibly westernized, it may lead to cultural confusion, identity confusion, and internal contradictions. This analysis reveals why Vietnam's choice of Westernization is not a viable path.
Second, the article highlights the potentially catastrophic consequences of conflicting institutional foundations. Through the examples of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, Vietnam's forced westernization under a socialist system could lead to regime subversion, civil war, and even internal chaos. This is a cautionary lesson for Vietnam, and it also provides readers with deep reflections on Vietnam's development options.
Then, the article suggests the right path for Vietnam's development. Steady reform and innovation on the premise of adhering to the institutional foundation and maintaining national stability is considered to be the right path for Vietnam to achieve development. This proposal reflects a pragmatic reflection on the specific path of Vietnam's development, and also calls on Vietnam to be more careful in choosing the way that suits its own national conditions in the process of development.
Finally, the article concludes by emphasizing the development challenges and uncertainties facing Vietnam. The conflict of institutional foundations is an issue that Vietnam needs to take seriously, and the country must assess the situation in the face of external influences, abandon blind following, and stick to its own national conditions in order to better meet the challenges of the future.
Overall, this article provides useful enlightenment through deep reflection on Vietnam's development choices and historical lessons. As a small country, Vietnam needs to be more careful in choosing the path that suits its national conditions in the pursuit of development in order to achieve sustainable prosperity. It is also a useful reference for the development of other small countries.
