Funded Activity Summary

State, War and Revolution in Vietnam, 1945-1954. The explosive experience of state formation, war and revolution combining together, thought by many to have vanished along with colonialism and the Cold War, now threatens to engulf the Middle East and/or Central Asia, much as it did Indochina fifty years ago. The largely untold story of Vietnam's 'Anti-French Resistance' in 1945-1954 offers plenty of policy warnings, if no prescriptions. Notably, those who argue that Australia's interests overseas can be safeguarded by technology and big-power alliances, ignoring human grievances, contentious politics, mass movements and social upheavals, put future generations at risk.
