  • A Century of Development in Taiwan

    Cal ClarkARTICLEThe China Journal2023

  • The political economy of Taiwan’s regional relations

    Alexander C Tan, Orson Tan et al.ARTICLEAsian Affairs An American Review2020

    In a world of globalized markets, sizeable core states gain greater benefits from economic integration. Small peripheral states generally increase in trade incomes yet at cost of sovereignty and agenda decisions. Recent studies in the field of political economy have demonstrated that concerted economic integration efforts actually lead to disproportional gains for bigger powers at the expense of smaller neighboring states. This differential in in…

  • Pandemic Planning in the United States

    Open AccessCharles E Menifield, Cal ClarkARTICLEPublic Administration Review2020Citada por: 9Referências: 9

    In the early months of 2020, news spread that a coronavirus (COVID‐19) had been detected in Wuhan, China. The virus quickly spread across the country and to other continents. As deaths mounted in the United States, evidence indicated that some states experienced a higher rate of COVID‐19 deaths than other states and that African American communities were hit harder by the virus than other racial groups. Hence, we pose two questions in this resear…

  • Was 2016 a Realigning Election in Taiwan

    Cal Clark, Alexander C Tan et al.ARTICLEAsian Survey2020

    The January 2016 presidential and legislative elections in Taiwan produced a dramatic and unprecedented victory for the Democratic Progressive Party over its long-time rival, the Kuomintang. The party had never had a parliamentary majority before 2016. The elections indicated the potential for fundamental change in Taiwan’s party system. This is what political scientists call a critical realigning election. The problem with identifying these elec…

  • Confronting the Costs of its Past Success

    Open AccessCal Clark, Alexander C Tan et al.ARTICLEAsian Politics & Policy2018Referências: 29

    The evolution of Taiwan's political economy seems paradoxical. From the 1960s to 1980s, Taiwan went through economic transformations that have been called an “economic miracle.” This was followed by a successful democratic transition from the late 1980s to mid‐1990s that might be considered a “political miracle.” In the early 1990s, Taiwan could be regarded as a success story and a model for developing nations. Yet, Taiwan was soon to “enter trou…

  • Policy diffusion as a means for improving national budget systems

    Open AccessCharles E Menifield, Lashonda M Stewart et al.ARTICLEJournal of Public Budgeting…2017

    Substantial research has been conducted examining policy diffusion among both the American states and the nations of the developed world and to a somewhat lesser extent, developing worlds. Little research, especially at the nation-state level, has focused upon budget systems, however. We use case studies of 18 diverse countries (Menifield, 2011) to conceptualize national budget systems and, based upon this conceptualization, to identify clusters …

  • Challenging Neoliberalism

    Cal Clark, Evelyn A Clark et al.BOOKChallenging Neoliberalism2016

    Neoliberalism, which advocates free markets without government interference, has become increasingly utilized and controversial over the last three and a half decades. This book presents case studies of Chile and Taiwan, two countries that seemingly prospered from adopting neoliberal strategies, and finds that their developmental histories challenge neoliberalism in fundamental ways.

  • The Puzzle of Why the Status of Women Is Higher in Taiwan than Chile

    Evelyn A Clark, Phyllis Mei-Lien Lu et al.ARTICLEAsian Affairs An American Review2014

    This paper compares the status of women in Chile and Taiwan in order to examine two research questions: First, what can explain Taiwan's considerably better record in enhancing the status of women? Second, what are the implications for the ongoing debate among global feminists about the effects of globalization on the status of women? Case studies of the two countries suggest that they are fairly similar in terms of progress on women's education …

  • Political Polarization in Taiwan

    Open AccessCal Clark, Alexander C Tan et al.ARTICLEJournal of Current Chinese Affairs2012Citada por: 1Referências: 15

    For the last decade, politics in Taiwan have become increasingly polarized over the national identity issue. Yet, the bitter division between the two major parties is not really reflected in the electorate. We seek to explain this paradox by examining the changing nature of political parties, in particular the growing role of ideological activists in campaigns, the rise of cultural and identity issues, the difficulty for new parties to emerge, th…

  • Political Polarization and Gridlock as the Result of an Institutional Imbroglio in Taiwan

    Open AccessCal Clark, Alexander C Tan et al.ARTICLEAsian Studies2011Citada por: 1Referências: 4

    Institutionalist theory argues that fairly permanent economic structures and policy-making arrangements create “institutions” which shape future policy-making and economic performance to a considerable extent (March and Olsen 1989; North 1990; Riker 1982). This perspective suggests that it might be valuable to look for the political institutions that evolved during Taiwan’s development which could have inhibited the country’s adaptability after t…

  • The Impact of the Asian Financial Crisis on Budget Politics in South Korea

    Changhoon Jung, Cal ClarkARTICLEAsian Affairs An American Review2010Citada por: 1

    The Republic of Korea was one of the major victims of the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997–98, but it recovered its economic dynamism quite quickly. In the short term, its budgetary response to near economic collapse was immediate and quite significant. The government increased spending and, once the peak of the crisis was over, taxes and expanded its previously very limited support of needy Koreans by substantially increasing funds for social deve…

  • The Resurrection of East Asian Dynamism

    Cal Clark, Changhoon JungARTICLEAsian Affairs An American Review2004Referências: 57

    uring the 1980s and much of the 1990s, Asia was the most dynamic D region in the global (see table 1). China had the highest growth rate in the world; the four of Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan were not far behind; and Japan had the highest growth rate by a considerable margin among the industrialized nations during the 1970s and 1980s, although the bursting of its bubble economy in 1989 brought economic stagnation throughout the 1…

  • East Asian Democratization

    Open AccessCal ClarkARTICLEAmerican Political Science Review2002

    Studies of Asian politics tend to follow one of two divergent analytic strategies. Area specialists emphasize the importance of Asian culture in shaping the politics and economics of those nations, whereas comparative theorists apply broader models of political behavior to the Asian context. Robert Compton seeks to integrate these two traditions, which generally speak past one another, by proposing a promising (albeit somewhat limited) model of t…

  • Globalization's Impact on State-local Economic Development Policy

    Open AccessCal Clark, Robert S MontjoyARTICLEReview of Policy Research2001Citada por: 1

    The growing exposure of the U.S. economy to international competition, popularly termed globalization, over the past two decades has brought some momentous changes affecting the American economy, society, and life styles. Not surprisingly, these changes have been reflected in growing political turbulence and shifts in policy paradigms as well. This symposium explores the effects that globalization has had on economic development policy and practi…

  • Local Regimes

    Open AccessCal Clark, Johnny Green et al.ARTICLEReview of Policy Research2001Citada por: 1Referências: 7

    This article explores the possible impacts that globalization might have upon the nature of local governments and the economic development policies that they adopt. We begin by outlining the theory of how "corporate regimes" dominate most urban centers, why they implement skewed economic development policies, and why globalization appears to be exacerbating these problems. Research on state-and-local economic development outside urban centers ind…

  • The Performance of National Health Care Systems

    Open AccessCal Clark, Rene McEldowneyARTICLEReview of Policy Research2000Referências: 3

    This paper seeks to contribute to an understanding of how macro health systems work by comparing three possible sets of influences on national health care outcomes: 1) health care facilities and their presumed link to national affluence, 2) social characteristics which are assumed to promote healthy behavior, and 3) political variables in the form of welfare state development. Our findings bear both optimistic and pessimistic connotations. On the…

  • The Health Care Financial Crisis

    Open AccessCal Clark, Rene McEldowneyARTICLEReview of Policy Research2000

    The key issues of the health care system are often conceptualized as involving three basic dimensions: 1) the quality of health care provided, 2) access to the health care system, and 3) the cost of health care. Following two decades of rapidly escalating health costs throughout advanced industrial societies, the relationships among these three dimensions now constitute what has been called an “unholy trinity” in that improvements along one dimen…
