A decade after the collapse of the communist states in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, the communist parties of China and Vietnam are not only surviving but are firmly in the saddle. Both have reason to be satisfied with their economic performance and both have moved decidedly away from the state-planned economies their governments championed only a few decades ago.
