strategic hamlets, a South Vietnamese Government program to counter Viet Cong control in the countryside. The government relocated farmers into fortified hamlets to provide defense, economic aid, and political assistance to residents.

The program started in 1962, but was fatally undermined by over expansion and poor execution. By 1964 it had clearly failed.
