This book presents an interdisciplinary examination of cross-Taiwan
Strait relations and the complex dynamics at play in the region.
Since the election of Ma Ying-jeou as Taiwan's president in 2008,
the relationship across the Taiwan Strait-long viewed as one of
Asia's most volatile potential flashpoints-has experienced a
remarkable detente. Whether the relationship has been truly
transformed, however, remains an open question and the Taiwan
Strait remains a central regional and global security issue. A
return to turbulence in the Taiwan Strait could also add a new
dimension of instability in the already tense maritime disputes in
the East and South China Seas. While the relationship across the
Taiwan Strait remains critically important, it is also changing
rapidly, and the chapters in this volume present new thinking to
help make sense of complex cross-Strait dynamics. Specifically,
these essays explore different security and/or globalization
dimensions of China-Taiwan ties as well as the
globalization-security linkages that have emerged. As the balance
of power in Asia shifts dramatically, several chapters in this
volume explore how traditional security forces are evolving. At the
same time, there are new dynamics emerging as a consequence of
globalization forces, such as the tremendous economic and social
integration across the Taiwan Strait, and several chapters in this
volume consider some of these new problems. Finally, several
chapters consider the often under-researched dynamics associated
with the globalization/security interface such as cyber threats,
transnational criminal networks and the security spill-over impact
of production globalization. This book will of much interest to
students of Chinese Politics, Asian Security, globalisation,
diplomacy and International Relations.
