Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consolidating Taiwan's Democracy assesses the often-heard argument that political change in Taiwan, especially that resulting from recent elections that brought a change of ruling parties (first in the executive branch of government and then the legislative branch), proves that Taiwan's democratization has been "finalized" or consolidated. The author sees both positive and negative aspects to democracy's consolidation in Taiwan.

Book excerpt: Democratization in Taiwan in the last decade raises the question whether a similar process can happen in China, and dispels the old conception that democratization is incompatible with the Chinese/Confucian tradition. This volume examines the nature of and the dynamics in the democratization of a Leninist style party-state in Taiwan and its implications for China - still governed under a Leninist system. It also assesses the process of democratic consolidation and the political, military and diplomatic reality which constrains democratization in Taiwan.

Book excerpt: This four volume collection will gather the best publications on the contemporary politics of Taiwan. With no equivalent collection currently available, this collection will fill a major gap in the market. As the most influential articles on Taiwanese politics are widely dispersed in various journals and edited volumes, this collection will be an invaluable resource for both students and researchers interested in the political processes that have shaped contemporary Taiwan. Although the articles will all be in English, they will include contributions from the leading Taiwan experts in Europe, the United States, Japan and Taiwan.The international importance of Taiwan and her politics is growing. The areas of particular academic interest include: the political economy of Taiwan's economic miracle the island's democratization and democratic consolidation Taiwan's position as the only Chinese liberal democracy Taiwan's role in US-China relations Cross-Strait relations and the danger of military conflict in the Taiwan Strait the Taiwanese versus Chinese identity debate the Taiwan independence versus unification issue Taiwan's struggle for international recognition the island's vibrant party politics and electoral campaigns Volume 1: Political History of TaiwanThe first volume of the collection is intended to bring together influential essays which provide a historical contextualization of modern Taiwan's political experience. The focus will be on political developments during the island's four decade long Martial Law period from the late 1940s through to the 1980s. Some of the principal themes addressed will be: the legacy of 50 years of Japanese colonial rule the chaotic return to Chinese rule after 1945 and the 1947 February 28 Incident The political system imposed on the island by the Kuomintang (KMT) regime local politics under Martial Law KMT party reforms KMT suppression of political opposition political economy of the economic miracle cultural politics KMT corporatism Taiwan's international position in the Cold War shift from hard to soft authoritarianism. Volume 2: Democratization and National Identity in TaiwanThe second volume addresses two of the issues that have received the most attention from political scientists working on Taiwan, namely democratization and national identity. The following areas will be covered: rise of an organized opposition movement competing explanations for Taiwan's democratic transition island's level of democratic consolidation the Taiwanese versus Chinese identity debate the Taiwan independence versus unification issue competing frameworks for analyzing identity politics. Volume 3: Taiwan's External RelationsThe essays in the third volume examine Taiwan's external relations since the end of Martial Law in 1987. The literature addresses how Taiwan's political liberalization and the changing international environment have affected the island's international status and external policy. Some of the main topics will be: cross-Strait relations relations with the United States relations with Japan and Europe battle for diplomatic recognition and to join international bodies such as the United Nations and WHO impact of democracy on external policy making external relations after September 11 and the change in ruling parties in Taiwan prospects for war or peace in the Taiwan Strait. Volume 4: Taiwan's Domestic PoliticsThe last volume will focus on salient issues in Taiwan's domestic politics. There is a growing literature addressing a broad range of aspects of the island's political development since the advent of multi-party politics in the late 1980s. Attentio

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taiwan faces many of the same challenges as most newly democratized nations such as the legacy of an authoritarian government, a traditional culture, ethnic division and non-majoritarian political institutions. Each chapter in this volume sheds light on the democratization process. The contributors examine questions concerning the state of political trust, ethnicity, democratic values and political institutions. In the post-Cold War era when America's foreign policy is focusing on how best to foster democratic transition throughout the world, the lessons that can be learned from Taiwan's democratization impart valuable lessons to students and scholars.

Book excerpt: "This volume may become the definitive resource for understanding the Chen Shui-bian era¿important for studying not only Taiwan¿s democratic development, but also democratic consolidation in general. The authors illustrate the complex, uneven, and multifaceted aspects of the era, also highlighting the `unfinished¿ nature of this lived democratic experience." --Vincent Wei-cheng Wang, University of Richmond "A `must read¿ collection.... This is by far the best treatment of democratic consolidation in Taiwan that I have seen." --Cal Clark, Auburn University When Chen Shui-bian, Taiwan¿s first non-Kuomintang president, left office in 2008, his tenure was widely considered a disappointment. More recent events, however, suggest the need for a reassessment of this crucial period in Taiwan¿s political development. Taiwan¿s Democracy Challenged provides that assessment, considering key facets of both the progress toward and the obstacles to democratic consolidation during the Chen Shui-bian era. Yun-han Chu is professor of political Science at National Taiwan University, Distinguished Research Fellow at the Institute of Political Science at Academia Sinica, and president of the Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation. Larry Diamond is senior fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies and the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. Kharis Templeman is research associate at the Spogli Institute¿s Center on Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law and also manages the institute¿s Taiwan Democracy Program.
