Abstract

This paper concerns institutional changes resulted from the development of a high-value export crop. Specifically, it examines important institutional changes in access to resources and services as industrial shrimp farming is asserting its place, and their implications for local livelihoods. The first part of the paper provides an overview of changes in the policy environment that were critical for the development of commercial crops like shrimp following Doi Moi in 1986, namely the wholesale of collectivization and recognition of household as the main production unit and the introduction of the farm economy, which is believed a viable parallel of the household economy. Part two documents institutional rearrangements that have taken place to accommodate the shrimp industry, particularly as relevant to the emergence of the farm economy. It is illustrated by the case of the Long Thanh Industrial Zone in Duyen Hai District of Tra Vinh province.
