The idea of the rule of law is always associated with the idea of democratic development that has been established since ancient times. This ideology exists and develops to this day and has become a symbol of democracy. Ho Chi Minh’s Ideology on the rule of law is the inheritance of cultural traditions and the experience of building and managing the state of many generations of Vietnamese people, and is the result of experience, research, and survey of many world democratic ideological systems, many revolutions, and many typical states in the world; at the same time, the penetration and creative application of the Marxism-Leninism’s perspective on a new style state to the specific conditions of Vietnam. This study has shown that with the nature of the people’s democratic revolution, stemming from the reality of a semi-feudal colonial country like Vietnam, the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) and President Ho Chi Minh has chosen the path of building a socialist rule of law state in Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh’s comprehensive and profound views on the rule of law are extremely great and valuable “spiritual assets”, laying the ideological and theoretical foundation for the policy of “continuing to build and perfecting the socialist rule of law state in Vietnam” of CPV today.
