Description:
In this newly revised and updated edition of Taiwan: Nation-State or Province?, John F. Copper examines Taiwan's geography, history, society and culture, economy, political system, and foreign and security policies, all within the context of Taiwan’s uncertain political status as either a sovereign nation or a province of the People's Republic of China. Copper argues that Taiwan’s rapid and successful democratization suggests that it should be independent and separate from China, while its economic links to China suggest the opposite.
The sixth edition includes enhanced coverage on the following issues:
-
Immigration and its impact
-
Taiwan’s very low birthrate
-
China’s economic and military rise
-
The decline of the United States
-
Taiwan's relations with China, the U.S., and Japan
-
The return to power of the KMT (Nationalist Party)
-
The implications of the 2012 presidential election
A selected bibliography is provided to guide students in further research on Taiwan’s political landscape.
