内容説明

The March 2000 presidential election was an important milestone in Taiwan's ongoing democratic development. After controlling political power for over five decades, the Kuomingtang was turned out of power and replaced by the opposition Democratic Progressive Party through a free and fair election. This book addresses the variety of effects that Taiwan's democratic development and the elections will have on domestic policy and the region. It examines trends and changes in Taiwan's politics, considers the international implications of Taiwan's democratic evolution for a variety of issues, and explores the challenges and prospects for continued democratic consolidation and the implications and lessons for the PRC and Southeast Asia.

目次

This book offers new insight on how key historical texts and events in Korea's history have contributed to the formation of the nation's collective consciousness. The work is woven around the unifying premise that particular narrative texts/events that extend back to the premodern period have remained important, albeit transformed, over the modern period and into the contemporary period. The author explores the relationship between gender and nationalism by showing how key narrative topics, such as tales of virtuous womanhood, have been employed, transformed, and re-deployed to make sense of particular national events. Connecting these narratives and historic events to contemporary Korean society, Jager reveals how these "sites" - or reference points - were also successfully re-deployed in the context of the division of Korea and the construction of Korea's modern consciousness.

内容説明

The March 2000 presidential election was an important milestone in the democratic development of Taiwan, with the Kuomintang turned out of power after five decades of control and replaced by the Democratic Progressive Party. This book address the variety of effects that Taiwan's democratic development and the election will have on domestic policy in the region. Part one looks at trends and changes in Taiwan's politics and analyzes the outcome of the March 2000 election. The chapters in part two discuss the international implications of Taiwan's democratic evolution for a variety of issues, including political, economic and security relations on both sides of the Taiwan strait; Japan's foreign policy in the region; U.S. foreign policy in the region; and peace and security in Southeast Asia. The challenges and prospects for continued democratic consolidation and the implications and lessons for the PRC and Southeast Asia are also explored.

  • Eastern Turkestan, now known as Xinjiang or the "New Territory," makes up a sixth of China's land mass. Absorbed by the Qing in the 1880s and re-conquered by Mao in 1949, this Turkic-Muslim region of China's remote northwest borders on formerly Sovier Central Asia, Afghanistan, Kashmir, Mongolia, and Tibet. Will Xinjiang participate in China's twenty-first century ascendancy, or will nascent Islamic radicalism in Xinjiang expand the orbit of instability in a dangerous part of the world? The authors of this comprehensive survey have combined their fieldwork experience, linguistic skills, and disciplinary expertise to assemble the first multifaceted introduction to Xinjiang. The volume surveys the region's geography
  • its history of military and political subjugation to China
  • economic, social, and commercial conditions
  • demography, public health, and ecology
  • and patterns of adaptation, resistance, opposition, and evolving identities.
