Taiwan’s China Dilemma

Despite similar cultures and extensive economic ties, Taiwan and China have not achieved a stable political relationship, let alone progress toward the unification that both governments once claimed to seek. Syaru Shirley Lin will explain this puzzle by examining the connection between Taiwan’s consolidating national identity and its oscillating economic policy toward China. She also shows how the growing backlash against globalization among the younger generations has affected Taiwan’s relations with China.
