China’s Buffer Thinking towards Taiwan
How are we to understand China’s decades-long sovereignty claim over Taiwan? One assumption upheld by many international relations scholars is that state behaviour will change according to a variance of polarity in the international system. Yet while China can flexibly manage its territorial issues elsewhere, its goal of unification with Taiwan has not changed despite multiple structural changes in the international system over the decades. This …
Investigating Criterial Discourse Features across Second Language Development
In this study, we investigated criterial discourse features in L2 writing through the use of recurrent word combinations, a.k.a. lexical bundles, taking a corpus-driven and expert-judged approach by examining L2 English data across various proficiency levels from L1 Chinese learners. Proficiency was determined by a robust rating procedure which is often used in high-stakes tests, instead of the traditional approach of utilizing extra-linguistic j…
The Intergenerational Transmission of the Value of Children in Contemporary Chinese Families
While fertility has been drastically declining in East Asia, mechanisms accounting for the current trend vary. One noticeable mechanism documented is that the changing value of children affects couples' fertility decisions which in turn affect their subsequent fertility behaviour. This study will examine the intergenerational transmission of the value of children (VOC) among grandmothers, mothers and teenagers in two Chinese societies: Taiwan and…
Continuity and Changes in the Timing and Formation of First Marriage Among Postwar Birth Cohorts in Taiwan
This study analyzes trends in the timing of entry into first marriage and the tendency for Taiwanese to choose partners of similar age, educational attainment, and ethnicity. Using pooled data from the 1991, 1996, 2001, and 2006 Taiwan Social Change Surveys, we examine the shift from early and universal marriage toward late and less marriage among postwar birth cohorts. After educational expansion, higher educated Taiwanese are more likely to pos…

The Importance of Social Context in the Formation of the Value of Children for Adolescents
This paper examines how adolescents' values may be shaped by the immediate social context with special reference to social class and rural urban background. The locus of study is Taiwan, a society with drastically declining birth rates in recent years. It is hypothesized that the value adolescents place on having children (or the positive value) and not having children (or the negative value) are accounted for by individual, familial and social c…
The Significance of Cross-Border Marriage in a Low Fertility Society
Few efforts have been made to explore two emerging demographic features, the extra low fertility of the Taiwanese population, and a rapid increase in cross-border marriages. The objective of this research is to provide comparative estimates of fertility outcomes of marriage immigrants from Mainland China, Southeast Asia, and other countries. Through exploring the 2003 Survey of Foreign and Mainland Chinese Spouses' Living Conditions, this study g…
