From the Paper:

"The Vietnam "War" between the United States and the Northern Vietnamese Communist forces led by Ho Chi Minh occurred between 1965-1976 (Hunt 2004). The Vietnam "War" was a very complicated and confusing time for all the parties involved. Many people could not even decide if it was a "war" or a police action. Michael H. Hunt in "The World Transformed:1945 to the Present" even explains how the Vietnam "War" was supposed to be a "limited War" (Hunt 2004: 173). One aspect of the Vietnam "War" that is often not discussed is how it impacted the living conditions of the Vietnamese during the war."
