Book Review
Tønnesson, Stein (2017) Review of Sophie Quinn-Judge, ed., The Third Force in the Vietnam War: The Elusive Search for Peace 1954-75, in Journal of Vietnamese Studies 15(1): 142–145.
Reviews a study of the "Third Force" in the Vietnam War
Praises the book for diversifying Vietnamese history by drawing attention to those who were opposed to both sides in the "Vietnam War", and criticizes the book for failing to describe the Third Force origins in the period of the First Indochina War, and downplaying the role of General de Gaulle's neutralist policy during the Vietnam War.
