Extract

The papers in Taiwan's Presidential Politics were originally presented at a workshop held soon after the election of Chen Shui-bian and appear to have been completed toward the end of 2000. They are thus preliminary assessments of “the domestic and international implications of two key outcomes of the election: the victory of Chen and the defeat of the KMT [Kuomintang]” (p. xii).
