This comprehensive book explores contemporary Taiwan from the
perspective of the Taiwanese themselves. In a unique set of
original essays, leading Taiwanese figures consider the country's
history, politics, society, economy, identity, and future
prospects. The volume provides a forum for a diversity of local
voices, who are rarely heard in the power struggle between China
and the United States over Taiwan's future. Whether it will be
absorbed by China, continue in its current limbo as an unrecognized
state, or seek outright independence and national sovereignty
remains an open question. Reflecting the deep ethnic and political
differences that are essential to understanding Taiwan today, this
work provides a nuanced introduction to its role in international
politics. Contributions by: Andrew C. Chang, Chang Chang-yi David,
Pochih Chen, Chen Yi-shen, Chi Guo-chung, Strong C. Chuang, Frank
S. T. Hsiao, Jolan Hsieh, Joseph C. C. Kuo, Lee Shiao-feng, Shyu-tu
Lee, Lee Teng-hui, Marie Lin, Jay Tsu-yi Loo, Lu Hsiu-lien Annette,
Peng Ming-min, George Sung, Michael M. Tsai, Tsay Ting-kuei
(Aquia), Tu Kuo-ch'ing, Jack F. Williams, Wong Ming-hsien, Wu
Rong-i, Wu Rwei-ren, and C. Eugene Yeh.
