Abstract

Farmers’ life in Vietnam has seen many changes physically and mentally after nearly thirty years of the implementation of the economic reforms. Particularly farmers in the Red River Delta in the Renovation. Moreover, the interaction between individuals, groups, and communities based on these social patterns has helped farmers improve their lives or restrained them from the development process today. This paper initially identifies and explains the social patterns, indicating barriers to the process of modernization and rural development in Vietnam, thereby contributing some evidence to clarify the unsettled debate about the nature of Vietnamese farmers that was raised almost half a century ago.
