"MARCHÉS IMMOBILIERS ÉMERGENTS ET DYNAMIQUES DE PRODUCTION DES TERRITOIRES MÉTROPOLITAINS: les cas de Hanoi et Ho Chi Minh Ville (Vietnam)" a seminar by Clément Musil (geographer and urban planner, PhD) and Danielle Labbé (urban planner and architect, PhD).
In the early 1990s, as a result of reforms that put Vietnam on the path to a "socialist-oriented market economy", a real estate market reappeared in the country's major cities. Driven by a rapid growth of urban populations and a constantly increasing rate of economic growth, today the real estate markets in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, and Ho Chi Minh City, the economic metropolis of the South, are experiencing a real effervescence. However, this spectacular dynamism, which is reflected in the construction of residential real estate projects of unprecedented scale for the country, is not without consequences and leads to a profound transformation of the peri-urban spaces of these metropolitan areas. In a perspective between the cases of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, this paper sheds light on the main components of these emerging markets and their effects on urban production.
