The paper examines various English translations of the term Tu tuong Ho Chi Minh. The author concludes that Ho Chi Minh Ideology is more accurate than the traditional version, Ho Chi Minh Thoughts. This ideology, which constitutes the Comintern techniques adapted to Vietnamese reality by Ho Chi Minh, underlies the state power in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and is the national idea of contemporary Vietnam, a critical technology whose elaboration opened the way to national liberation. The ideology of Ho Chi Minh is also the ideological ground of successful economic reform effected in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Stemming from the conception of neurological levels, the author reveals the technique of changing the beliefs and actions of the Vietnamese public under the influence of the Ho Chi Minh ideology.
