Vietnam and New Zealand are two unique countries of the Pacific zone in terms of history and civilization. Nonetheless, the differences between them with regard to both the economic and the sociopolitical sphere are highly significant. The dominant target of this book is the critical examination of the profiles of these two countries in terms of history, economy and trade. What is more, it is worth mentioning that despite those differences, both Vietnam and New Zealand are considered to be two equally notable European Union trade partners. And it is true that, so far, the Union has successfully managed to maintain highly beneficial trade relations with both of them. We really hope that our painstaking scrutiny as regards the past and the present of Vietnam and New Zealand will offer the reader the opportunity to become familiar with a number of slightly (or perhaps totally) unknown details and to draw his personal conclusions in terms of the present and the future of these two truly fascinating (in far too many senses) countries.
