en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 noi 2025
This new textbook presents an excellent introduction to the most important aspects of contemporary Taiwanese society, politics, economy, and international relations in a comprehensive and reader-friendly way.
Illustrating Taiwan as more than just a military hot spot – also as a vibrant democracy, a beacon of human rights, a technological leader, and an economic hub – each chapter poses a fundamental question, including:
  • How did the island develop?
  • How did Taiwan become a democracy?
  • How does it combine tradition and modernity?
  • What human rights problems does Taiwan encounter?
  • How did Taiwan become an Asian Tiger?
  • How does it live with its neighbours?
  • How does diplomacy work when you're not internationally recognized?
Contemporary Taiwan is an excellent resource for students of Taiwan Studies, international relations, political science, and global studies, as well as think tanks, consultants, and journalists seeking critical and balanced background information on contemporary Taiwan.

Recenzii

‘The discourse surrounding Taiwan in international media predominantly centers on its contentious relationship with the People’s Republic of China. This textbook on contemporary Taiwan presents the latest insights into Taiwanese society and the various challenges it encounters beyond the issue with China. It is essential reading for students seeking a current understanding of Taiwan in the present day. Journalists covering Taiwan or aiming to write about it comparatively will find the impartial and concise background information in this book invaluable.’
Julie Yu-Wen Chen, Professor of Chinese Studies, University of Helsinki, Finland
