This book draws attention to the issues of Indigenous justice and
reconciliation in Taiwan, exploring how Indigenous actors affirm
their rights through explicitly political and legal strategies, but
also through subtle forms of justice work in films, language
instruction, museums, and handicraft production. Taiwan's
Indigenous peoples have been colonized by successive external
regimes, mobilized into war for Imperial Japan, stigmatized as
primitive "mountain compatriots" in need of modernization, and
instrumentalized as proof of Taiwan's unique identity vis-a-vis
China. Taiwan's government now encapsulates them in democratic
institutions of indigeneity. This volume emphasizes that there is
new hope for real justice in an era in which states and Indigenous
peoples seek meaningful forms of reconciliation at all levels and
arenas of social life. The chapters, written by leading Indigenous,
Taiwanese, and international scholars in their respective fields,
examine concrete situations in which Indigenous peoples seek
justice and decolonization from the perspectives of territory and
sovereignty, social work and justice. Illustrating that there is
new hope for real justice in an era in which states and Indigenous
peoples seek meaningful forms of reconciliation, this book is an
invaluable resource for students and scholars of Taiwan Studies,
Indigenous Studies, and Social Justice Studies.
The peoples of Taiwan have been influenced by many different
cultures and migrations throughout the island's history. In the
20th and early 21st centuries especially it has been a stage for
cultural and ethnic conflict, not least because of the arrival of
mainland Chinese fleeing the Chinese Communist Revolution. The
subsequent tensions between those who see Taiwan as a natural
territory of China and those who would prefer to see it remain
independent have brought to the fore questions of what it is to be
'Taiwanese'. This book addresses the question of how Taiwanese
identities have changed after the Taiwanization process which began
in the 1990s. It also examines the impact of this process on
cross-strait relations between Taiwan and the People's Republic of
China after the return of the Kuomintang to power after 2008 and
the Sunflower movement in 2014. The various contributors between
them cover a range of topics including the waves of migration to
Taiwan, changes of political regimes, generational differences and
social movements. Taken as a whole, this book presents a nuanced
picture of the patchwork of identities which exist in contemporary
Taiwan.
