In the 1980's and 1990's, the country undertook major institutional reforms, and an impressive reduction in poverty followed. But what role did the reforms play? Did the efficiency gains from reform come at a cost to equity? Were there both winners and losers? Was rising rural landlessness in the wake of reforms a sign of success or failure? Land in Transition investigates the impacts on living standards of the two stages of land law reform: in 1988, when land was allocated to households administrationWorld Bank e-Library.Land reformVietnamVietnamEconomic policy1975-VietnamEconomic conditions1975-Land reform333.3/1597Ravallion Martin229586Van de Walle Dominique140710DLCDLCDLCBOOK9910822206203321Land in transition3989636UNINA
