Abstract

The paper begins with the addition of some fundamental concepts used as a theoretical basis for the study of cultural exchanges such as the level of exchanges (strong / weak), the conditions for the openness level of a culture, the power structure of a culture (material power, mental power), etc. Together with the characteristics of the subject, the time and space of the Nambo culture, factual basis is the strength and characteristics of cultural exchanges of the three regions (of Vietnam). In the context of the period of cultural transition from Vietnam’s rural culture to urban culture, from agricultural culture to industrial culture, the Nambo culture has quite a few advantages. Cultural exchange in Nambo helps develop physical strength, especially in the field of economic culture and traffic culture; cultural exchange in Nambo also helps develop mental strength in the field of organizational culture, educational culture, communicative culture, behaving culture, etc. For some aspects, the Nambo culture can be considered the intermediary chain link between Vietnamese traditional culture and Western culture. In this sense, the Nambo culture and cultural exchange in Nambo have played the role of a key factor in promoting and enhancing the efficiency of the development and modernization of Vietnam's traditional culture.
