The Power of Everyday PoliticsHow Vietnamese Peasants Transformed National Policy\nAuthor(s): Benedict J. Tria Kerkvliet\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Cornell University Press, United States\nImprint: Cornell University Press\nISBN-13: 9780801443015, 978-0801443015\nSynopsis\nOrdinary people's everyday political behavior can have a huge impact on national policy: that is the central conclusion of this book on Vietnam. In telling the story of collectivized agriculture in that country, Benedict J. Tria Kerkvliet uncovers a history of local resistance to national policy and gives a voice to the villagers who effected change. Not through open opposition but through their everyday political behavior, villagers individually and in small, unorganized groups undermined collective farming and frustrated authorities' efforts to correct the problems.\n\n The Power of Everyday Politics is an authoritative account, based on extensive research in Vietnam's National Archives and in the Red River De.
