The Colonisation and Settlement of Taiwan, 1684–1945: Land Tenure, Law and Qing and Japanese Policies: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Colonisation and Settlement of Taiwan, 1684–1945: Land Tenure, Law and Qing and Japanese Policies" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The dispossession of indigenous peoples by conquest regimes remains a pressing issue. This book, unlike most other books on the subject, contrasts two different colonial administrations first the Chinese Qing Empire, then, from 1895, the Japanese. It shows how, under the Chinese legal system, the Qing employed the Chinese legal system to manage the relationship between the increasing numbers of Han Chinese settlers and the indigenous peoples, and how, although the Qing regime refrained from taking actions to transform aboriginal land tenure, nevertheless Chinese settlers were able to manipulate aboriginal land tenure to their advantage. It goes on to examine the very different approach of the Japanese colonial administration, which following the Meiji Restoration of 1868 had begun to adopt a Western legal framework, demonstrating how this was intentionally much more intrusive, and how the Japanese modernized legal framework significantly disrupted aboriginal land tenure. Based on extensive original research, the book provides important insights into colonisation, different legal traditions and the impact of colonial settlement on indigenous peoples.

Taiwan, an island which used to be known by Europeans as Formosa,

During the Qing period some aboriginal groups, mostly those that lived in the plains areas, were exposed to the Chinese culture when Han Chinese settlement spread and became acculturated. They lost their distinctive features as aborigines, and possession and control of their land. The mountain territories were still largely controlled by the aborigines.
