Party's policy on religion in harmony with the nation and socialism according to Ho Chi Minh's thoughts

Political theory Monday, 08:51 14-04-2025
Abstract: President Ho Chi Minh was a revolutionary figure who rarely addressed matters of belief or religion from a perspective of religious studies. Instead, he often discussed belief and religion in relation to specific political tasks. Ho Chi Minh's thoughts on belief and religion are deeply imbued with profound humanitarian ideals, ultimately for the cause of human liberation. With a very accurate and historically specific perspective within the conditions of Vietnamese society, the Communist Party of Vietnam consistently upholds freedom of belief and religion, emphasizing the similarities between religion and socialism. Mobilizing people with positive religious beliefs to actively participate in the construction of a new society is the correct path to align religion in harmony with the nation, thereby contributing to thwarting the hostile forces' schemes of exploiting religion to sabotage the revolution and oppose socialism.

A theoretical framework to Vietnam's paradiplomacy making and implementation

A theoretical framework to Vietnam's paradiplomacy making and implementation

Political theory 23:01 23-11-2025 1 tuần trước

Abstract: Paradiplomacy, or subnational diplomacy, has become an increasingly significant dimension of international relations in the context of globalization and decentralization. In Vietnam, local diplomacy plays a vital role in the realization of the country’s foreign policy objectives, particularly in linking security, development, and international position. This article develops a theoretical framework for understanding how Vietnam formulates and implements paradiplomatic policies. It adopts a policy analysis approach based on the “ends–means–ways” and linear model, adapted to the Vietnamese political-administrative context. The framework emphasizes both vertical coordination (top-down guidance from the central level) and horizontal interaction (bottom-up initiatives from provinces and cities), reflecting the hybrid nature of Vietnam’s paradiplomacy as both a delegated and an autonomous practice within the unified foreign policy system.

Abstract: At present, hostile forces are aggressively implementing the strategy of "peaceful evolution" with increasing intensity and urgency. Democracy and human rights are being used as pretexts to incite disorder, disrupt stability, and undermine political and social security, while also attempting to divide national unity. Their ultimate goal is to destabilize the political system, weaken, and eventually overthrow the leadership of the Communist Party, thereby eliminating the socialist regime in Vietnam.

The expansion of the mass movement in all social movements under the leadership of the proletarian party is the most notable historical feature of the people's democratic revolutionary era. The birth and development of a new culture and art in Viet Nam during the people's democratic revolution was associated with the fight for national independence and reunification. Recognizing the Party's leadership role in the process of building a new culture and art during progressive revolutionary resistance wars has created conditions for the harmonious development of the people's culture and art.
