Most colonies became independent countries after the end of World
War II, while few of them became modernized even after decades of
their independence. Taiwan is one of the few to become a modern
state with remarkable achievements in its economic, socio-cultural,
and political development. In 1921, Taiwanese intellectuals
initiated a Petition Movement for the Establishment of a Taiwanese
Parliament under the colonial government. Leaders of the
enlightenment also established the Taiwan Cultural Association
(TCA) on October 17, 1921. These two movements led to a series of
socio-cultural, political, and economic developments during the
past century. This book addresses the path and trajectory of the
emergence of Taiwan from a colony to a modern state in the past
century. It contains four major sections on identity and political
developments and explores international relations, economic
development. educational and societal development, and culture and
literature development. This thorough exploration will prove
invaluable to graduate and undergraduate students in Taiwan
history, literature, and the cultural and political economy of
development as well as students studying East Asia. It offers the
same wealth of information to researchers and practitioners in
Taiwan-China-US trilateral relations and in cultural anthropology
and practices in East Asia politics and business.
