Contemporary Taiwan
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-80148-3 (ISBN)
Illustrating Taiwan as more than just a military hot spot – also as a vibrant democracy, a beacon of human rights, a technological leader, and an economic hub – each chapter poses a fundamental question, including:
How did the island develop?
How did Taiwan become a democracy?
How does it combine tradition and modernity?
What human rights problems does Taiwan encounter?
How did Taiwan become an Asian Tiger?
How does it live with its neighbours?
How does diplomacy work when you're not internationally recognized?
Contemporary Taiwan is an excellent resource for students of Taiwan Studies, international relations, political science, and global studies, as well as think tanks, consultants, and journalists seeking critical and balanced background information on contemporary Taiwan.
Kristina Kironska is Assistant Professor at Palacký University Olomouc, Czech Republic, and Co-Director at the Central European Institute of Asian Studies (CEIAS). Eunika Rejtová Yang is a research fellow at the Central European Institute of Asian Studies (CEIAS).
