contents Vietnam Goes Western: A Political Economy Analysis Of Vietnam's Accession to the WTO Iliana Olivié Federico Steinberg Economía y Finanzas WTO Trade Vietnam Development Political Economy This paper explores the reasons and motivations for Vietnam’s entry into he World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2007. On the basis of in-depth, semistructured interviews with elites, secondary sources, and official documents, we point to the relevance of political economy considerations in this decision. In particular, Vietnamese authorities used WTO accession as an instrument to lock-in internal structural reforms, signal political stability to trade partners,and secure market access to Western consumer markets. Accession comes after a qualitative change in the export pattern (increased added value) that also meant new trade partners, mostly Western partners. Therefore, we interpret WTO accession as the final step of a widerprocess of economic and trade “Westernization”. 2014 artículo científico 1576-0162 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=86632963009 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=866 REM.
