TAIWAN AS A CASE STUDY IN STRATEGIC AMBIGUITY

DOES US “RECOGNIZE” OR “ACKNOWLEDGE” “ONE CHINA?”

JIANG ZEMIN’S 8 POINTS and HU JINTAO’S 4 POINTS

“ONE COUNTRY, (1, 2, OR 3) SYSTEMS”?

3 NO’S AND THE TRA?

“ANTI-SUCCESSION LAW” - TO BLOCK INDEPENDENCE,

NOT COERCE UNIFICATION

BUT ON TAIWAN….

ECONOMIC MIRACLE: up from poverty

POLITICAL MIRACLE: From martial law to democracy

The DPPThe “new” KMT

IDENTITY: CHINESE OR TAIWANESE?

US ROLE: TAIWAN RELATIONS ACT

IS TAIWAN THE 21ST CENTURY’S“CZECHOSLOVAKIA”?

THE TAIWAN DILEMMA

分久必合,合久必分Anything long divided will surely unite,

and anything long united will surely divide

US-PRC-TAIWAN: A DEADLY EMBRACE

PROBLEMS OF DEFINITION: WHAT IS “THE STATUS QUO”?

PROBLEMS OF NATIONALISM: CHINA, TAIWAN

PROBLEMS OF IDENTITY: WHAT IS “CHINESE”

PROBLEMS OF IDEOLOGY: “UNIFICATION”

PROBLEMS OF “STRATEGIC AMBIGUITY”

PROBLEMS OF THE ECONOMY-See “Globalization & The Future of the Taiwan Miracle” by Berger & Lester, in “Precis” Spring 2005, pp 11-13 http://web.mit.edu/cis/Publications/MIT_Precis_spring_2005.pdf

TAIWAN AS A CASE STUDY OF “THE 4 BASIC QUESTIONS”

RULE: TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY If PRC accepts Taiwan self-determination,

then what about Tibet, Xinjiang, etc?

GREATNESS: PRC REGIME LEGITIMACY

TRANSFORMATION: TAIWAN A MODEL?

DEALING WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD: IS TAIWAN A DOMESTIC OR INTERNATIONAL

ISSUE? US seen as perpetuating Taiwan’s “separatism”JZM: “We shall try our best to achieve the peaceful

reunification of China since Chinese should not fight Chinese. We do not promise not to use force. If used, force will not be directed against our compatriots in Taiwan, but against the foreign forces who intervene in China’s reunification and go in for ‘the independence of Taiwan’.”
