This document summarizes a presentation on remaking historical memory in Vietnam's coffee trading industry. It discusses: 1) The structure of Vietnam's coffee industry and production. 2) An economist's perspective on Vietnam's economic transformation from a centrally-planned to market-oriented economy between 1979-1986. 3) How memory has been remade around coffee trading in Vietnam's Central Highlands, from state-owned enterprises to private agents and global commodity-backed bonds. 4) Concluding remarks that contrast the views of a private enterprise owner wary of futures contracts versus a foreign company CEO who sees their benefits.
