Abstract

The development of countries may depend on many factors, but it is inseparable from land. Land conversion from agricultural to non-agricultural purposes has become inevitable during industrial revolutions in all developed countries worldwide. In particular, compulsory land conversion, although not the optimal solution, has become one of the methods for countries to implement this request. Referring to the experience of compulsory land conversion in several other countries, this article selects advanced points that can be “transplanted” into the land legal system of Vietnam. Also, such points may contribute to raising awareness and expanding the horizons of developing legal norms in the face of the current requirement to amend Vietnam’s land law.
