Abstract:

Vietnamese laws and the ideals of the Communist Party of Vietnam have made it possible for everyone to practice their beliefs and religion. Vietnam is now among the nations with the greatest variety and quantity of religious and philosophical beliefs. Due to the increasing development of religion and belief in Vietnam, the law needs to be improved to ensure the Vietnamese people's freedom of religion. The article focuses on analyzing major awareness points about religion and belief that occurred during the foundation and development of Vietnam since this is the root cause of changes in religious freedom in this country. As a result, it helps to answer the following questions: Is Vietnamese law on religion and belief up to par with the international standards of laws? Do Vietnamese citizens have the freedom to practice their religion and beliefs? The article also demonstrates the primary expressions of contemporary religious life in Vietnam.

Abstract:

After Vietnam's August Revolution in 1945, Hồ Chí Minh was venerated as the center of a newly created political religion that eventually became part of the Vietnamese religious landscape. This article traces the origins of Hồ Chí Minh's veneration and his own role in cementing his image not only as the leader of the nation but as the Uncle, the head of the Vietnamese national family. Through an examination of Hồ Chí Minh's first (auto)biography, it explores some of the means employed to achieve these results. Hồ Chí Minh's cult transformed the nation and altered Vietnamese cultural traditions. It served to acquaint people with the new order and to create and perpetuate people's loyalty to the newly formed state entities. This article looks at how Hồ Chí Minh went from being the master of his own cult to losing control over it and becoming its employee.

Abstract The Vietnamese state has issued numerous measures to prevent the spread of covid-19 in the country. This paper shows how the state used the law to manage religious activities for the purpose of public health during the epidemic. We argued that because of legal, institutional, and religious factors, the Vietnamese state was successful in establishing cooperation with religious organizations to implement measures restricting religious activities to limit the spread of the epidemic in the country.

Abstract:

This study explores the association between the values of dominant religions in Vietnam and the communication about pain coping strategies employed by Vietnamese women who have cancer. Data was collected by means of in-depth interviews with twenty-six Vietnamese female cancer patients. Content analysis was then utilised to describe and interpret the women’s pain talks. Participants proposed six religion-related pain coping strategies, including accepting pain, bearing pain on one’s own, trying to change karma, being positive about pain, managing to forget pain and sharing pain when it becomes unbearable. The findings reflected that the religious values of Confucianism and Buddhism are associated with the patients’ communication about the strategies they employed to cope with their pain. Moreover, the language of communicating pain coping could be mapped onto the categories of passive language and active language, within the religion framework. The research has thus also confirmed the role of language in the communication about pain experience.

Abstract:

The traditional culture of Vietnam, in addition to typical indigenous folk beliefs, also includes three systems of ideas imported from outside Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. In those three ideological systems, Buddhism and Confucianism are very easy to evaluate and comment on, because the two religions have been used by the feudal Vietnamese dynasties and respect is the national religion; such as Buddhism under the Ly Dynasty and Tran Dynasty; Confucianism under the Le Dynasty and Nguyen Dynasty. Particularly for Taoism, its influence was mainly on the folk, living with the common class in society. To consider correctly, few documents can be as authentic as Confucianism and Buddhism, when the activities of these two religions were well documented. However, the influence of Taoism on Vietnamese culture is undeniable. Based on researching ancient documents, and actual surveys in the provinces and cities of Vietnam, this research focuses on studying the influence of Taoism on the folk beliefs of Vietnamese in 3 beliefs: (1) Belief in worshiping the ancestors; (2) Belief in worshiping the Mother Goddess; (3) Belief in worshiping the village Tutelary god.

Abstract:

This article discusses the cult of the tutelary spirits (thành hoàng) in Vietnam. These are spirits venerated as patrons of villages, rural communities and urban areas in Vietnam are expected to protect area against calamities, disasters, epidemics, wars, etc. These are mythical, historical and pseudo-historical characters who have merits to the area and its inhabitants. The veneration of them is rooted in the traditional culture. It is an integral part of the Vietnamese folk religion (tín ngưỡng dân gian Việt Nam). The spirits of the area are included in the pantheon of numerous deities and spirits (thần) worshipped by the Vietnamese nowadays despite the anti-religious policy of the Communist Party of Vietnam (in the second half of the 20th century). The article describes the main features of the Vietnamese folk religion, which is the context in which the thành hoàng cult still exists, describes the role of the cult and its connections with other phenomena of the Vietnamese folk religion. Our comparison of the thành hoàng cult with similar cults of neighboring peoples allows to identify the influence of alien religious and philosophical systems - Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Christianity, ideologies of the 20th century. This comparative analysis allows to reconstruct the origins and milestones in the development of the thành hoàng cult. The cult has not previously been studied by Soviet and Russian orientalists. I propose the first systematic description of the cult, its place in the Vietnamese religious system and its origins.

Abstract:

The article is about how step by step, religious equality has become a solution in the process of ensuring religious freedom in the environment of religious pluralism and religious diversity. However, around the application of the equality solution, there have been arguments about its practical effectiveness. This article illustrates observations about equality in religious freedom in Vietnam, which are based on scientific methods: analysis, synthesis, and comparison. The research results confirm that the equal solution has proved consistent with the characteristics of the Vietnamese socialist state and Vietnamese culture tolerance and posed challenges to recognizing religious organizations’ legal status in Vietnam

Abstract:

Studies of immigrant students in upper secondary school in Iceland often highlight low attendance rates and early school departure. This article interrogates this view through an exploration of the perspectives of 13 students of Vietnamese heritage in two upper secondary schools. The article mobilizes multicultural education which sees education as inclusive, insisting on valuing diversity and equal opportunity regardless of gender, religion, belief, ethnicity, race, socioeconomic status, disability, or other statuses. Analysis of interviews shows that students, despite their positive feelings towards their teachers and their belief that their teachers were trying to do their best, understood that they were perceived to be deficient due to their lack of Icelandic language proficiency. Teachers' perceptions were thus limited, and they overlooked the students' academic and heritage resources that could have provided advantages in the learning process and contributed to student motivation and attainment.

Abstract:

After the fall of the Berlin Wall and the breakdown of the East German Socialist government, thousands of former contract workers from Vietnam stayed in the then reunified Germany. Due to their resulting precarious economic situation, a large number of these migrants became engaged in small business and petty trade. Some of them, women in particular, have become successful entrepreneurs and wholesalers in recently built bazaars in the eastern parts of Berlin. Most interestingly, parts of these urban spaces, former industrial areas on the periphery of Germany’s capital, have been transformed into religious places. This article explores the formation of female Vietnamese Buddhist networks on the grounds of Asian wholesale markets. It argues that transnational mobilities in a post-socialist setting encourage border-crossing religious activities, linking people and places to various former socialist countries as well as to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Further, by considering political tensions between Vietnamese in the eastern and western part of Berlin, this contribution illustrates the negotiation of political sensitivities among diasporic Vietnamese in reunited Germany. Based on ethnographic fieldwork among female lay Buddhists, it focuses on entrepreneurship and investigates the relationship between business, migration and religious practices.

Abstract:

The study of the impact of globalization on religion and the changes in Vietnam's policies in recent years is a difficult and difficult task to determine accurately. However, the results that this article brings will partly shed light on the religious trends in Vietnam before the impact of globalization and the changes in religious policy of the Vietnamese state today. This study focuses on clarifying religious life in Vietnam; the impact of globalization on religious life in its people; it highlights common trends in religious life, as well as secularization, modernization of religion, diversification of religious activities, new forms of religion, and the characteristics of new religious phenomena. The study also focused on analyzing Vietnam's religious policies; the advantages and limitations of these policies. It can be seen that the change of religious life in Vietnam in the period of renewal is mainly due to the impact of change in the economic, cultural and social life of the renewal of economic development, in the context of globalization, market expansion, and the international integration of Vietnam. Furthermore, it is a consequence of the restoration and increasing need for religious-spiritual life after years of repression by war. Hence, the need for theoretical and practical research on religious trends and policies, to help improve the policies of the Communist Party and the State on religion, guaranteeing democracy and equality in religious activities in Vietnam.

Within the family, filial respect is seen as the highest moral virtue in Vietnam, while venerating national mothers and fathers is regarded as a manifestation of "national cultural identity." In this article, the authors explore key features of the pairing of mythic mothers with mythic fathers. Their specific interest is the development of Mother Goddess Liễu Hạnh's cult and the association it has come to have with that of Trần Hưng Đạo, who is revered as a Father of the Nation.

Worshiping forsaken souls is a folk religious phenomenon popular in the Vietnamese community. This is a custom representing the humanity in Vietnamese culture, preserved and transmitted from generation to generation. The purpose of the research on the worshiping forsaken souls is determining that when it is viewed in a scientific perspective, this kind of folk religion has certain contributions to the tabilization of human spirits, to consolidation of their beliefs in life within a social context that the diversity of unexpected events and risks can come to anyone beyond their ability of prediction. On the other hand, worshiping forsaken souls is considered one of the needs of popular beliefs in the Vietnamese community in Southwestern Vietnam.

Abstract:

Women are disproportionately represented at most Vietnamese religious sites. Understanding the reasons behind women's prominent participation provides a revealing glimpse into both Vietnamese religion as well as the dynamic nature of gender and power in Vietnamese society. At the core of most women's religious lives is the common practice of making offerings and then reclaiming them as loc (an object that brings good luck), but its implications are as secular as they are supernatural. The act of distributing the reclaimed loc, especially to family members, serves to strengthen relationships and improve the social capital of women by adding to feelings of indebtedness (on). This paper explores the practices and socio-religious implications that surround loc.

This article gives a review of two books examining the religious situation in “post-secular” Vietnam. The book of American anthropologist Shaun Malarney “Culture, Ritual, and Revolution in Vietnam” (2002) offers a research of the transformations of religious practices and morality caused by the 1945 communist revolution: the author shows the polyphony of understanding of morality and ritual in Vietnamese society. The edited volume “Religion, Place and Modernity: Spatial Articulation in Southeast Asia and East Asia” (Ed. by M. Dickhardt and A. Lauser in 2016) examines, within an “anthropology of space and place,” the emergence of new “secular religions” in Vietnam.

The Mendicant Sect is a Buddhist movement that combines Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism. Based on fieldwork, analysis of ritual handbooks and other sect materials provided by informants, and readings of published works of Vietnamese monastics and scholars, this article introduces the sect's history and philosophy, describes its Central Vihara, and records a case study of its lay ritual practice, the Eight Precepts Ritual [Bát Quan Trai Giới]. In so doing, it illustrates the "revival of religion" thesis with a southern and Buddhist case study, while challenging the notion that Vietnamese Buddhism is essentially Mahayanist.

In the history of national cultural development, Vietnam soon absorbed and was deeply influenced by the great currents of ideas of Chinese culture and humanity, including Confucianism.

Abstract:

В статье представлены важные данные в целях уточнения регулирования во Вьетнаме государственно-конфессиональных отношений в контексте создания новых государственных типов учреждений в истории Вьетнама. Чтобы прояснить эту правовую корректировку, автор поставил перед собой следующие три основные задачи: определить предпосылки для принятия законодательства о религии в течение указанного периода; проанализировать содержание законодательства о религии на протяжении всего этого исторического периода; выяснить значения этих правовых положений. Автор изучил все важные юридические документы, изданные государством по вопросам веры, вероисповедания и религии. Материалы исследования также основаны на работах западных и восточных авторов, пишущих о Вьетнаме в этот исторический период. Логические методы (анализ, синтез, абстракция) и исторический метод в юриспруденции являются основными методами, применяемыми автором в данном исследовании. Результаты исследования показали, что: (1) законодательство об отношениях между государством и религиозными организациями в период 1945–1975 гг. регулировалось во Вьетнаме ролью президента Хо Ши Мина в идее солидарности религии в блоке единства нации, практическим положением религии во Вьетнаме и правовой основой того времени; (2) содержание правового регулирования было упомянуто во Вьетнамских конституциях и Указе Президента № 234 от 14 июня 1955 г. о религиозных вопросах и соответствующих правовых документах с прогрессивными положениями о свободе вероисповедания и религии, правах и обязанностях государства и религиозных организаций в определённых областях общественной жизни; (3) значение законодательства в данный период проявляется в создании механизмов для защиты права на свободу убеждений и религии, в создании модели светского государства, в пропаганде цивилизованного поведения в отношении религиозных вопросов и во вьетнамском законодательстве, направленном на модернизацию. Изучение государственно-конфессиональных отношений важно в процессе выработки политики в отношении религии в современный период, а также способствует прояснению процесса правового регулирования этих отношений в истории вьетнамского законодательства. The paper presents important data to clarify the regulation of state-confessional relations in the context of the new state-type establishment in Vietnamese history. In order to elucidate this legal adjustment, the author has set out the following three basic tasks: identifying prerequisites for the enactment of the legislation on religion during this period; analyzing the content of the legislation on religion throughout this historical period; drawing out the values of these legal provisions. The author has studied all the significant legal documents issued by the state on the matters of belief, worship, and religion. Research materials are also based on the works of Western and Eastern authors writing about Vietnam in this historical period. Logical methods (analysis, synthesis, abstraction) and historical method in jurisprudence are the main methods used by the author in this study. The research results have illustrated that: (1) the legislation on relations between the state and religious or-ganizations in the period of 1945–1975 was governed by the role of President Ho Chi Minh in the idea of solidarity religions in the unity bloc of the nation, the practical situation of religion in Vietnam and the legal basis at that time; (2) the content of the legal adjustment was mentioned in the Vietnamese constitutions and the Presidential Decree No. 234 on 14 June 1955 on religious issues and relevant legal documents with progressive provisions on the freedom of belief and religion, the rights and responsibilities of the state and religious organizations on specific areas of social life; (3) the value of the law in this period is evident in the establish-ment of mechanisms to protect the right to freedom of belief and religion, to build a secular state model, to promote civilized behaviors in respect of religious matters and to bring Vietnamese law in the direction of modernization. The study of state-confessional relations is important in the process of developing a policy regarding religion in the modern period, and also helps to clarify the process of legal regulation of these relations in the history of Vietnamese legislation.Nguyen Son Nam.

Abstract:

In the development process and social movements, the literary genres do not exist independently but have interaction with each other. Novels are capable of performing genres interaction because “the novel allows to put into it many different genres, including artistic genres (short stories, lyric poems, epics, speech plays...) and non-artistic genres (literature in daily life, rhetoric, science, religion...)”[1]. Novels with traditional writing style about contemporary Vietnamese history (prominent writers such as Nguyen Xuan Khanh, Vo Thi Hao, Nguyen Mong Giac...), the interaction among literary genres is considered as the most common form. Typical forms of genre interaction in novels with historical themes are the interaction between short stories and novels, poetry and novels... Genre interaction expresses the writer’s sense of creativity and experience in the innovation requirement of literary life practice.

Abstract:

Translation of culture-specific items has posed many difficulties to translators as it requires thorough knowledge of both languages and cultures. This study aims to investigate the assessment of foreign tourists on the translation of object labels at Vietnamese Women’s Museum and to shed light on tourist’s preferences for cultural word translation procedures. In order to fulfil these objectives, a mixed-method research was conducted in which questionnaire and interview were used as the primary data collection instruments. The model proposed by Vinay and Darbelnet (2000) was applied to analyze the procedures of the cultural word translation. The findings showed that the translation at Vietnamese Women’s Museum generally came up to tourists’ expectation and successfully helped them understand the majority of Vietnamese culture exhibited at the museum. However, some contents relating to religion or Vietnamese customs such as Mother worshipping, consecration ritual, 13 celestial Mothers full-month ceremony and traditional outfits such as fabric-making or fabric-dyeing methods, names of traditional costumes caused some challenges to the readers. Suggestions from tourists were valuable for both translators and the museum to improve their translation and display at the museum.

Abstract:

This article explores the dynamic relationship between states, authoritarian regimes, and organized religion in the ostensibly Marxist-Leninist states of Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. Despite espousing an initial shared ideological commitment toward curbing the influence of domestic religion, actual regime policies toward these groups have varied considerably over time. I argue that the explanation for this difference can be found in unpacking the strength of each regime’s state apparatus. This article introduces a new typological theory for understanding how state capacity has shaped the divergent strategies Cambodian, Lao and Vietnamese regimes have employed to manage organized religion during the post-Vietnam War era (1975 to present). In brief, I argue that regime elites in Vietnam have successfully co-opted organized religion through the state bureaucracy. Conversely, Marxist-inspired regimes in Cambodia and Laos have oscillated between policies of coercive violence and strategic accommodation to dilute the power of domestic religious groups.

Abstract:

Buddhism is not only a religion but also a kind of human wisdom in the impermanent life. Over thousands of years of the nation's history, Buddhism is still one of the religions with great influence on many aspects of social life. Buddhism in the Tran Dynasty unified many schools for the first time into Truc Lam Zen Buddhism and developed into its own independent sect of Vietnamese Buddhism. The philosophical thought of Zen Buddhism was increasingly developed and was not only popular in the court, but also spread widely in the world and had a great impact on society. In this paper, the author analyzes some basic content of philosophical thought in the philosophical thought of Truc Lam Yen Tu Zen sect, thereby pointing out some values and limitations in this school's philosophical thought.

Abstract:

This paper examines two cases of Zhuang religious revival involving multiple actors. It shows how consideration of “superstition” ([Formula: see text], mixin) places some religious practice outside the institutional framework when discussing the modern concept of religion in China. In this paper, I particularly focus on two main dimensions of religious revival among the Zhuang people. The first is a grassroots dimension that involves the revival of a so-called “superstitious” cult in which Zhuang people along the Sino-Vietnamese border carry out shamanic rituals to make offerings to a powerful chief-turned-deity, Nong Zhigao, and his wife. The second dimension is a top-down dynamic and involves a series of projects conducted by Zhuang officials, scholars and business persons, which aim to standardize a Zhuang religion, known as Mo religion. These two cases of religious revival demonstrate the varied strategies utilized by different actors in response to government policies regarding religion in China.

Abstract:

The study describes an asymmetric relationship between Vietnamese Caodaists, followers of the Cao Dai religion, and the Japanese during World War Two. The Caodaists maintained a pro-Japanese stance throughout the occupation, based on their judgement that they could in this way advance the nationalist cause and achieve independence from French rule. The position of the Caodaists immediately after the end of World War Two was adversely affected as a result of their wartime collaboration.

Western secular historiography has conventionally viewed the history of Catholicism in Vietnam through a political optic, a perspective which has distorted the early nineteenth-century religious situation in both Vietnam and France. This article discusses how Vietnamese understood Catholicism at the popular level and what attracted people to the religion, as well as introducing an important European Catholic fund-raising society whose interventions into Vietnam long predated any serious French political designs on the country.

Abstract:

This article takes the case of the Vietnamese Cao Dai religion to examine how Asian religious leaders and translators, in a context of colonial modernity, invested a European language with their own cosmologies and discourses, building both a national identity and an alternative spiritual universalism. Studies of translation in colonial contexts have tended to focus on the processes and impact of translating European texts and ideas into the languages of the colonized. This article discusses the inverse process, examining how Caodai textual production used French spiritist language and tropes to occult its Chinese roots, translating Daoist cosmology into a universalist and anti-colonial spiritual discourse rooted in Vietnamese nationalism. These shifts are examined through a close examination of translingual practices in the production and translation of the core esoteric scripture of Caodaism, theĐại Thừa Chơn Giáo 大乘真教(The True Teachings of the Great Vehicle), rendered in its 1950 Vietnamese-French edition asThe Bible of the Great Cycle of Esotericism.This study demonstrates how colonial religious institutions and networks of circulation in Asia stimulate the emergence of new movements and textual practices that mimic, invert, jumble, and transcend the cosmologies of both the Chinese imperium and the European colonial regime.

Abstract:

This paper adopts a regional and geographical approach to show how the early spread of communism to mainland South-east Asia owes much to overseas Chinese and overland Vietnamese patterns of immigration. This wider approach seeks to get beyond the frontiers of nationalist histories and the formation of the 'modern' nation-state (whether colonial or national) in order to think in more material terms about how communism and not entirely unlike Catholicism or any other religion first entered mainland Southeast Asia on the ground, by which channels, by which groups of people and at which times. The idea is to begin mapping out the introduction and spread of communism in peninsular Southeast Asia in both time and space. This, in turn, provides us with a methodologically and historically sounder basis for thinking about the 'why' of this Sino-Vietnamese revolutionary graft and the failure of this brand of conmmunism to take hold in certain places and among certain peoples outside of China and Vietnam.

Abstract:

The relationship between State and Church in Vietnam differs from that in China because of the loyalty of the Vietnamese Church to Rome. As a minority religion (7% of the population), the Catholic Church has adopted a policy of dialogue with the communist State since the reunification of the country in 1975. After a difficult initial period, the Church is now enjoying a marked revival. The reform policy (đ i m i) initiated in 1986 and the opening of the country after more than 40 years of war have contributed to the improvement of State—Church relations. Committed to an international integration process, and under simultaneous pressure from Western countries, international institutions and increasing public unrest, the Vietnamese State is pursuing its policy of religious tolerance even though this policy creates tensions both within the Party and at local level. However, it does not seem to compromise the process of establishing diplomatic relations with the Vatican.

Abstract:

Religion and the Catholic Church have played an important role in Vietnamese history. The article examines the development of the Catholic Church in Vietnam, from the 17th Century to the 20th Century, based on reports published by the Society of Foreign Missions of Paris (M.E.P.) who contributed to the evangelization of many Asian countries. In this contribution, we will highlight the work and the development of the M.E.P through their reports. We will also focus on the relationship between the states who played a specific role in the history of the Catholic Church in Vietnam, from the creation of the M.E.P. until the period of post-colonization, with specific reference to the attitude of different states throughout the history of Vietnam. The survey of the activities of Catholics in Vietnam suggests that French missionaries were well organized and proactive throughout the centuries, and that the adoption of Christianity in Vietnam was achieved through cooperation between the M.E.P and the Vietnamese population.

Abstract:

Over the past four decades, abortion has remained the most controversial domestic issue in the US. Public opinion toward legalizing abortion has been sharply divided yet stable according to several major surveys. This study examines how religion and other important factors affect Asian Americans’ views toward abortion. Data are from the National Asian American Survey 2008 and multivariate analyses are used to examine whether religion exerts a mediation effect and explore attitudinal differences among six major Asian American groups. Results show that Asian Americans resemble the broader society in their opinions toward the abortion issue in that a documented sharp division exists among Asian American respondents. Groups ranked by the level of support for legal abortion are: Japanese, Chinese, Asian Indians, Korean, Filipino/a, and Vietnamese Americans. OLS regression analyses show that religiosity mediates the impact of religious affiliation on opinions toward abortion for Asian Americans who are non-Catholic Christians. Among Asian American who are Catholics, only a partial mediation effect is observed in the analysis. Analysis conducted for each Asian American group shows that different factors exert varying degree of influence in the opinion toward legalized abortion. Thus, an interaction effect of religion and ethnicity is found. Implications concerning ethnic diversity, religion, and opinions toward abortion are discussed in the paper.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the seventeenth century, Chan Buddhist masters from monasteries in South China boarded merchant ships to Chinese merchant colonies in East and Southeast Asian port cities to establish or maintain monasteries. Typically, Chinese seafarers and merchants sponsored their travel, and sovereigns and elites abroad offered their patronage. What were these monks and their patrons seeking? This study will investigate the question through the case of one Chan master, Shilian Dashan, who journeyed to the Vietnamese kingdom of Cochinchina (Dang Trong) in 1695 and 1696. In Dashan, we see a form of Buddhism thought to have vanished with the Silk Road: that is, Buddhism as a ‘missionary religion’ able to propagate branch temples through long-distance networks of merchant colonies, and to form monastic communities within the host societies that welcomed them. This evident agency of seafaring Chan monks in early modern times suggests that Buddhism’s role in commerce, diaspora, and state formation in early modern maritime Asia may compare to religions like Islam and Christianity, and deserves further study.

Abstract:

The Republic of Turkey and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam celebrated the 40th anniversary of its diplomatic relations in 2018. In history, due to the geographic distance and differences of many aspects of language, religion and culture, the contact and relations between two nations were very limited. However, the relations between Turkey and Vietnam have achieved some prominent events. For example, on the voyage to Japan of a frigate named Ertuğrul of the Ottoman navy in 1890, it stopped to visit Sai Gon. During the Vietnam War, some of Turkish staffs and journalists like H. Oğuz Barut and Sami Kohen came to the South of Vietnam and reported on the war that was happening in Vietnam. These reports led the Turkish people have the objective and impartial perceptions of the country and people of Vietnam. After the Vietnam War ended, in 1978 the Turkish Government established diplomatic relations with the Vietnamese Government. Since that time, the diplomatic relations between two countries have gained some significant achievements. This article researches the relations between Turkey and Vietnam from the late of the nineteenth-century to the present. Based on some basic references, the Turkish - Vietnamese relations could be divided into three periods: in the late 19th century, during the Vietnam War and since 1978 to the present.

Abstract:

Traditional medicine is hugely popular throughout Southeast Asia and other parts of the world. The development of the internet and online social networks in these contexts has enabled a significant proliferation of non-biomedical knowledge and practices via platforms such as Facebook. People use Facebook to advocate for non- biomedical alternatives to unaffordable biomedicine, share family medical recipes, discuss medicinal properties of indigenous plants, buy and sell these plants, and even crowdsource disease diagnoses. This paper examines the network characteristics of, and discourses present within, three popular Vietnamese non-biomedical knowledge Facebook sites over a period of five years. These large-scale datasets are studied using social network analysis and generative statistical models for topic analysis (Latent Dirichlet allocation). Forty-nine unique topics were quantitatively identified and qualitatively interpreted. Among these topics, themes of religion and philanthropy, critical discussions of traditional medicine, and negotiations involving overseas Vietnamese were particularly notable. Although non-biomedical networks on Facebook are growing both in terms of scale and popularity, sub-network comment activities within these networks exhibit ‘small world’ characteristics. This suggests that social media seem to be replicating existing social dynamics that historically enable the maintenance of traditional forms of medical knowledge, rather than transforming them here.

Abstract:

This article sheds light on the sophisticated funeral process set up by the Cao Đài religion (or Caodaism), combining both a theological and an ethnographical analysis. After introducing how Cao Đài theology represents both the body and the spiritual components of each individual in the specific millenarian conception of existence that characterizes Cao Đài, we trace the ritual process of funerals from the altar and coffin preparation to the collection of prayers and talismanic rituals conveyed to save souls in a Cao Đài manner. Read together, these sources present a genuine project and spirit of reform in the ideas, imaginaries, and practices related to death in Vietnam from the 1920s onwards, crystallizing a specific Cao Đài identity in Vietnamese and also East Asian redemptive societies’ deathscapes.

Abstract:

The article examines the cult of the bacteriologist, the discoverer of the plague bacillus Alexandre Yersin (1863–1943) in modern Vietnam. The cult of Yersin developed in the place of his burial near the city of Nha Trang in the south of Vietnam, and Yersin is worshiped there both as a rural guardian spirit in the Vietnamese folk religion (thành hoàng), and as a bodhisattva in Mahayana Buddhism, although he was not a Buddhist. One of the Buddhist temples in which he is worshiped was previously his office. Meanwhile, Buddhist cult is closely related to the popular veneration of the scientist. Worship of Yersin as a guardian spirit takes place at his grave. An important feature of the cult is that the popular veneration of Yersin was supported by the state: in 2013, a biography of Yersin was published in which his merits are referred as a basis for honoring him as the patron spirit of the area. In addition, secular ceremonies in honor of Yersin contain elements of religious practices rooted in the Vietnamese belief in the existence of the spirits of the dead and their active influence on the daily life of living people. I consider the veneration of Yersin as a new syncretic cult of post-secular Vietnam which give evidence of the vitality of traditional beliefs and their ability to develop in changing social conditions.
