Chinas Rise, Taiwans Dilemmas and International Peace

What is at stake in the triangular relation between China, Taiwan and the United States is nothing less than war and peace in the twenty-first century. If the stereotypes and misconceptions emanating from the media are to be believed, then a war between China and Taiwan is inevitable. This book examines the issue while bringing the Taiwanese views on identity politics to the forefront of the discussion.

The book focuses on Chinas authoritarian rise and explains how this has created painful dilemmas for a separate and democratic Taiwan while also suggesting different paths that could yet defeat the looming forces of war and contribute to maintaining the peace. Centering on the primary issues facing Taiwan, China and the United States, it analyzes Taiwans need to prevent Chinas rule from suffocating their cherished democracy, whether China will pursue military force to achieve political and economic dominance over Taiwan, and how the United States proposes to maintain peace between these two countries to ensure both a continuation of democracy in Taiwan and good relations with China.

In highlighting these issues, the contributors also seek to offer practical policy alternatives that could help to advance the cause of freedom and international peace. Featuring chapters from an international group of academics, Chinas Rise, Taiwans Dilemmas and International Peace makes a valuable addition to the understanding of TaiwanChina relations within an international context.

Edward Friedman is Professor of Political Science at the University of Wisconsin, USA.
