The Cultural Dimensions of the Vietnamese Private EntrepreneurshipQuan Hoang VuongSolvay Brussels School of Economics and Management, Centre Emile Bernheim (University of Brussels); DHVP Economics Tri Dung TranDHVP Research & Consultancy December 15, 2009 The IUP Journal of Entrepreneurship and Development, Vol. VI, No. 3 & 4, pp. 54-78. The Icfai University Press, September-December 2009 Abstract: This paper examines the influence of cultural and socioeconomic factors on the growth of enterpreneurship in Vietnam. Traditional cultural values continue to have a strong impact on the Vietnamese society, and to a large extent adversely affect the entrepreneurial spirit of the community. Typical constraints private entrepreneurs face may have roots in the cultural facet as legacy of the Confucian society like relationship-based bank credit. Low quality business education is both a victim and culprit of the long-standing tradition that looks down on the role of private entrepreneurship in the country.
