  This introductory chapter outlines developments in China, Vietnam and Laos over the recent decades and places these cases in the literature on development as well as in the contemporary world economy. It discusses the socialist market economy in relation to theories on the developmental state and other forms of state-led developmentalism, as well as in relation to regional economic integration and production networks. This includes discussing the three countries’ positions in the theory of the ‘flying geese’, as well as their overall strategies and policies towards both protectionism and integration. The chapter outlines overall development trends in the socialist market economies and their performance on economic and social indicators, and discusses to what extent they are ‘development success stories’. The chapter ends by outlining how the respective chapters in the book contribute to address the overarching issues in our analysis.

  In this concluding chapter, the editors draw on the diverse perspectives and aspects presented in the preceding chapters to assess the development model of the socialist market economy, and attempts to frame the socialist market economy model within a larger international context. Comparing the models of China, Vietnam and Laos in one volume, we are better positioned to see the main characteristics of the socialist market economy as a whole, and the similarities between the three countries, but we have also exposed the differences between them. Following the main overall themes of the book, the chapter looks at the social market economy through discussions of ideology, the state and market relationship, environmental sustainability and state and society. We then take a closer look at the main similarities and differences of the model in China, Vietnam and Laos, as well as some main trends in the relationship between the three neighbouring countries. Finally, at the end of the chapter, we identify some themes for further research, with special attention given to the developmental state agenda, political developments and the impact of ongoing changes in international politics.

  The rapidly escalating production and consumption of meat across the world has drawn much attention in recent years. While mainstream accounts tend to see the phenomenon as driven by ‘natural’ processes of consumption pattern change through economic development, critical geographies have turned to exploring the uneven capitalist processes underpinning what Tony Weis calls ‘meatification’. In Weis’ view, meatification unfolds through what he calls ‘the industrial grain-oilseed-livestock complex’, which is presently becoming a dominant form of agricultural production worldwide. Simultaneously, but less thoroughly investigated in the emerging scholarship, meatification unfolds in and through everyday geographies of consumption that we conceptualize as variegated ‘meatscapes’. By bringing together critical geographers’ interest in the political economy of meat with practice theory and consumption research, this contribution furthers the geographical dialogue around the spatial transformations brought about by meatification. Looking at Vietnam and China as examples of rapidly meatifying countries, we explore the intersection of macro-scale spatial transformations through trade and commodity flows and, at the micro-scale, transformations in food practices. We thus argue for an approach to meatification that is multi-scalar and conducive to further regionally specific research of meatification in Asia and beyond.

  Motorbike taxis have a long history in Vietnam and represent a crucial part of mobilities in Vietnamese cities. In the two-wheeled dominated streetscapes, the introduction of commercial “sharing services” has also mainly taken place through motorbike taxis. This chapter approaches shared mobilities in Vietnam’s capital, Hanoi, focusing particularly on the relationship between the new app-based vehicle sharing services and the existing motorbike taxis (known as xe om). Based on observations and interviews with motorbike taxi drivers, we analyse the role of vehicle sharing in Hanoian mobilities and the impact of the new forms of “sharing economy” on Hanoi’s streetscapes and the people making a living there by offering passenger transport services. We suggest that both kinds of drivers represent a kind of mobile and flexible precariat, but that the introduction of app-based motorbike taxis in Hanoi represents a formalization and commercialization of the traditional xe om. The new services unsurprisingly represent a formidable competitor and often a direct threat to the livelihoods of traditional motorbike taxi drivers, although the latter are so far proving resilient in the encounter with the app-based services by adopting a range of different strategies.

  What Tony Weis (2007) describes as the process of ‘meatification’ of global diets implies that meat has moved from the ‘periphery to the centre of human food consumption patterns’. ‘Demeatification’, putting meat consumption back to the periphery, is desirable both for reducing agricultural emissions implicated in the energy-grain-livestock system, and for responding to ethical commitments to human and animal welfare and to global justice. But what does it take to ‘demeatify’ food consumption? This paper investigates the cognitive, psychological and moral dimensions of meat consumption. We design a suite of interventions aimed to test the social and moral ‘elasticity’ of Norwegian meat consumption, scaled from less to more intrusive, as follows: (1) diffusion of information on: (a) climate and ethical impacts of large-scale meat production; (b) physical and mental health effects of meat consumption and production for consumers and for farm and abattoir workers; (2) experience-based interventions: (a) commercial propaganda spots for meat consumption reduction or climate-friendly meat alternatives; (b) creating ‘live’ situations facilitating facing animals, farm workers and production systems as moral agents, e.g. via experiencing low-scale organic farming vs large-scale industrial farming, and; (3) instituting a personal meat allowance for selected groups of consumers. Response variations will be analysed using control experimentation and qualitative methods, attending to demographic characteristics including gender. Demeatification policies responding to the ‘elasticity’ of meat consumption in Norway have a higher chance of being socially robust.

  The ‘meatification’ of human diets has been subject to increasing scholarly attention in recent years, along with its many impacts. While the rapidly expanding meatification in many Asian countries has been noted, the geographies of these processes have been left largely unexplored. This paper maps the changing geographies of meat with special focus on Southeast Asia. We use Tony Weis’ concept of ‘the industrial grain-oilseed-livestock complex’ to analyse how forms of systemic meatification are taking place in Asia. We map and analyse regional trends in meat production and consumption, as well as trade patterns in meat products and dominant feed crops. We argue that the regional meat complex emerges through increasingly regional development processes and capital, as well as through new South-South connections. The geographies of meatification in Southeast Asia thus constitute an empirical manifestation of the emerging multipolarity of the global food regime.
