China and Taiwan have similar political cultures. However, the
Chinese intellectual and political elite have failed to democratize
the Middle Kingdom since the 4 May 1919 Movement; whilst their
Taiwanese counterpart succeeded in making the island state fairly
democratic in just over four decades since the 28 February 1947
Uprising.;After an examination of the approaches they applied, the
author finds that the former have pursued a culturalist route by
trying to change the psycho-cultural make-up of the Chinese people.
Conversely, Taiwan followed an institutional road in which they
tried to win elections and to set up political organizations, such
as parties.
