In January 2016, Taiwan's former authoritarian ruler, the KMT, the
Nationalist Party of China, lost control of both the presidency and
the legislature. Having led the democratization process in Taiwan
during the 1980s, it maintained a winning coalition among big
business, the public sector, green-collar workers and local
factions. Until now. A New Era in Democratic Taiwan identifies
past, present and future trajectories in party politics and
state-society relations in Taiwan. Providing a comprehensive
examination of public opinion data, it sheds light on significant
changes in the composition of political attitudes among the
electorate. Through theoretical and empirical analyses, this book
also demonstrates the emergence of a 'new' Taiwanese identity
during the transition to democracy and shows how a diffusion of
interests in society has led to an opening for niche political
organizations. The result, it argues, is a long-term challenge to
the ruling parties. As the first book to evaluate Taiwan's domestic
and international circumstances after Tsai's election in 2016, this
book will be useful for students and scholars of Taiwan Studies and
cross-Strait relations, as well as Asian politics more generally.
