Democratization in Taiwan Implications for China
Description
This work asks whether the democratization process that has taken place in Taiwan could happen in China, and aims to dispel the old conception that democratization is incompatible with the Chinese/Confucian tradition. This volume examines the nature of and the dynamics in the democratization of a Leninist-style party state in Taiwan and its implications for China still governed under a Leninist system. It also assesses the process of democratic consolidation and the political, military and diplomatic reality which constrains democratization in Taiwan.
