Abstract

This paper focuses on analyzing the achievements and limitations of Vietnam in the implementation of social equity in the economic growth process after the renovation in 1986. Economic growth generated capital to invest in social welfare, more income and opportunities for people to enjoy a prosperous life. However, besides above achievements, there still remain many limitations, such as: unsustainable development in income, living standard and poverty alleviation; low quality of health care, education and entertainment services. Based on the analysis of the causes of the limitations, this paper proposed the orientations for solving the relationship between the economic growth and social equality in Vietnam in the future.
