Academic literature on the topic 'North Vietnamese Journalists'

Vietnam: An epic tragedy 1945-1975, by Max Hastings. London: William Collins. 2018. 722 pages. ISBN 978-0-00-813298-9WHEN SAIGON fell, 44 years ago on 30 April 1975, a number of journalists, photographers and cameramen were there to witness the final humiliation of the United States. Journalist John Pilger and cameraman Neil Davis, both Australians, were there to see the North Vietnamese Army take the city, as was New Zealander Peter Arnett, among others. Pilger’s slim volume about those events, The Last Day, is a classic. Davis survived Saigon, but filmed his own death while covering an attempted coup in Bangkok in 1987.

Based on unpublished documents, many issues of Vietnamese history from 1940 to 1945, when France and Japan governed over Vietnam, could be researched in depth. Due to the linguistic and geographical challenges of using foreign languages, such as French and Japanese, the Vietnamese documents in all written forms, including Vietnamese newspapers, attest to their significant values. Along with Sciences Newspaper and Tri Tân, Thanh Nghi Newspaper was one of the three most widely legal-published newspapers in North Vietnam in this period. In its five-year existence, 120 published issues, and 1000 articles, Thanh Nghi had not only reflected Vietnam’s economic, political, and social affairs but it promoted national development by disseminating information and knowledge as well as struggling for social advancement. The documentary values of this weekly newspaper are identified not just in its research articles, essays, and investigative reports. Rather, the newspaper itself became a forum for Vietnamese intellectuals, composed of doctors, engineers, writers, presenting their opinions to contribute to advance the nation. Many journalists were the pioneers in building a people-owned regime. If effectively unearthing the Thanh Nghi material, it could provide tremendous value to research the Vietnamese history in the 1940 - 1945 period in various aspects, thus narrowing the research flaws in previous studies and bestowing a multi-dimensional viewpoint on this controversial historical period.

Cette thèse concentre ses recherches sur les journalistes qui ont couvert la guerre du Vietnam (guerre américaine au Vietnam de 1955 à 1975) en se focalisant exclusivement sur un groupe spécifique de journalistes nord-vietnamiens qui ont couvert les batailles du Nord, du Sud ou l’ensemble lors de la guerre du Vietnam. De nombreux journalistes nord-vietnamiens qui rendaient compte des événements de la guerre ont joué un rôle important dans la guerre pour l’indépendance nationale. Beaucoup d’entre eux sont morts sur les champs de bataille et beaucoup sont sortis de la guerre avec des handicaps ou dans de mauvaises conditions de vie. Leurs contributions ne sont consignées que dans des journaux intimes, des documents historiques et des livres contenant des informations générales. Il n’y a pas eu jusqu’à présent de recherche scientifique analysant en détail : pourquoi les journalistes ont assisté à la guerre ;comment ils se sont préparés à couvrir la guerre ; quels appuis ils ont reçus de leurs directions ; quelles étaient leurs conditions de travail et de vie ; comment ils ont vécu et travaillé en fonction de ces conditions dans les combats ; quels types d’équipement ils ont utilisé pour rendre leur travail possible ; comment ils se sont déplacés vers et dans les zones de combat ; ce qu’ils ont fait quand ils se sont reposés ; ce qu’ils pensaient de leur travail ; quels résultats ils ont obtenus ; quels impacts leur participation a eue ; comment leur travail a influencé leurs propres engagements. Par conséquent, cette thèse vise à identifier ces aspects cachés du vécu des journalistes nord-vietnamiens afin de mettre en évidence leurs contributions dans les objectifs de leur pays
This thesis researches journalists who covered the Vietnam War (the American War in Vietnam from 1955 to 1975). The focus is only on a specific group of the North Vietnamese journalists who covered the battles in the North or the South or both in the Vietnam War. Many North Vietnamese journalists, who reported on the war events, played an important role in the war for national independence. Many of them died in the battlefields and many left the war with disabilities or poor living conditions. Their contributions are recorded only in diaries, historical documents, and books with general information. Nevertheless, there is no scientific research analyzing in detail : why the journalists attended to the war; how they prepared for their covering the war; what they received from their offices; what working and living conditions they had; how they lived and worked with these conditions in combats; what kinds of equipment they used to make their work possible; how they moved in battles; what they did when they rested; what they thought about their job; which products they obtained; which impacts they had from their participation; how their work influenced their own commitments. Therefore, the thesis aims to identify these hidden aspects to highlight the North Vietnamese journalists' contributions in their country's targets
