| Summary/Abstract |
This report presents cartographic evidence of the government of the Republic of China's (ROC) change of attitude from denying to asserting sovereignty over the Diaoyutai Islands in the early 1970s. Scholars have hinted that China kept silent about the Japanese claim on the Diaoyutai Islands since its 1895 annexation. As cartographic evidence in this report reveals, however, the ROC did not keep silent. By not including the Diaoyutai Islands in its official cartographic productions, the ROC admitted that the Diaoyutai Islands were not part of its territory. This has significant implications for the ROC because Japan exerts its claim over the islands not only on the terra nullius principle, but also on the fact that Taiwan viewed these islands as non-ROC territory until the 1970s. Today, Taiwan continues to exert the claim that it has owned these islands since ancient times. Our cartographic evidence suggests difficulties for Taiwan in defending its claim in this longstanding battle.

| Summary/Abstract |
Most electoral studies have "atomized" voters, detaching them from their local contexts. To provide evidence that local context does matter in voting behavior in Taiwan, this study will combine individual and ecological data relating to the Taiwan presidential election of 2004. The results show that both local ethnic composition and the economic situation of a township ran influence the voting behavior of residents. First, people who identify themselves as Taiwanese are more likely to vote DPP, while the higher the percentage of Hohlo there is in a township, the more likely its residents are to identify themselves as Taiwanese, and conversely, the higher the percentage of mainlanders, the less likely residents are to identify themselves as Taiwanese. Second, residents educated to senior high school-level or above are more likely to vote DPP in more affluent townships, while those educated to junior high school-level or below are more likely to vote DPP in more deprived townships. These findings suggest that similar people vote differently in different places.
