Taiwan under President Ma Ying‐jeou focused on hedging its bets against China's rise through engagement, accommodation, and soft balancing.

Neverthele…
Paradox of Political Realism: The Taiwanese and Chinese Perceptions on the Rise of China Compared
This article argues that given china's unique historical path of development, the realist tradition of international relations needs further revision and adjustments to suit the Chinese case. The Chinese interpretation of socialist ideology is based on political pragmatism instead of moral crusading. The Taiwanese are facing a rising China with caution and prudence. However, the center-periphery mentality of the Chinese side makes cross-Strait ne…

The areas that we have chosen to investigate are Beijing's Zhongguancun and Shanghai's Yangpu District. The main reason that we selected these two areas for study is because they are home to most of the top universities and R&D institutes in these two cities. Our ma…

Both the Democratic Progressive Party and Kuomintang (the Chinese Nationalist Party) administrations have endeavored to re‐intervene in fields like research and development to strengthen and upgrade industrial competitiveness. The Ma administration tries to adopt a policy of global…

State and Business in the Era of Globalization: The Case of Cross-Strait Linkages in the Computer Industry
Accounting for Taiwan's economic policy toward China
This article explores the ideas, institutions, and interests in which Taiwan's economic policy toward China is embedded. The authors indicate that the ideas behind Taiwan's economic policy toward China are as vibrant as ever, the political foundation for a coherent and feasible policy is eroding, and commercial interests are digressing from the Taiwan government's policy goals. Political forces around ideas have strong hearing on the formation of…
Securing Economic Relations Across the Taiwan Straits: New challenges and opportunities
Cross-Taiwan Straits economic interaction is a political as well as an economic issue. General trends of economic interdependence and globalization that are weakening the role of the nation state should promote a focus of shared 'civilian governance' between Taiwan and mainland China. WTO entry will provide opportunities as well as challenges for cross-Strait economic relations. In anticipation of this dynamic, the new government in Taiwan is att…

Dynamics of Taiwan-Mainland China Economic Relations: The Role of Private Firms
This article examines Taiwan's statecraft toward the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the role of the business community in cross-strait interactions. It argues that the realist perspective on statecraft cannot fully explain the current political economy between Taiwan and mainland China. The realist school of thought on international political economy argues that states are the only meaningful actors in the world economy. In an anarchic inte…
The Taiwan-China Connection: Democracy and Development across the Taiwan Straits
Exploring the transitional role of the state in Taiwan's economic development, this book focuses especially on the impact of trade with mainland China. Tse-Kang Leng argues that the basic structure of political forces within Taiwan and its pattern of external economic relations have been transformed in the 1990s, with cross-Straits trade playing a key part. Although politically embarrassing to the government, this trade provides an economic oppor…
The State and Taiwan's Mainland Economic Policy
T his article adopts the state-centered approach to analyze Taiwan's crossstraits economic policy in the 1990s. I use the strong-state paradigm to explain Taiwan's development in the past forty years. While the neo-liberal school of political economy stresses the advantage of laissez-faire policies, and dependency theorists emphasize international constraints upon development, the statist approach focuses on the state's capacity and autonomy in m…
