Evolution of Taiwan’s Approaches Towards the Nation-Political Identity Issue and Affairs with Public Republic of China
Abstract
The article investigates the issue of Taiwan’s growing political identity. For this purpose the discourse analysis of the political rhetoric of island China’s presidents from 1988 to 2022 has been conducted. The authors consider such historical factors in Taiwan-PRC relations as ideological confrontation, Taiwanese nationalism, inter-party struggle within Taiwan, pragmatism of trade and economic cooperation of island and mainland China, as well as the priorities of safe coexistence in relations between them. Factors influencing the dynamics of the political position of Taiwan’s official authorities on the “One China Policy” and relations with the PRC. The issue of how Taiwan’s approaches to mainland China, as well as the prospects of its own political development, have changed has become the research focus.
