| Summary/Abstract |
The 1911 Revolution was a momentous event in bringing down the monarchical institution with a history of 2,000 years. Yet its consequences were ambiguous, it was overshadowed by the more radical revolution that followed in 1949, and it was stigmatized by the defeat of the Kuomintang, which claimed it as its own. Its 'revolutionariness' has been in question even as it has been celebrated as a turning point in modern Chinese history. This discussion reaffirms the revolutionary significance of the event, but also suggests that it is best viewed as a 'high peak' in a revolution of long duration that is yet to be completed. The current regime in China has revived aspects of monarchical culture and practices that revolutionaries sought to abolish in 1911. Most importantly, the promise of full citizenship for all that animated the 1911 Revolution remains unfulfilled, which may explain the contemporary regime's nervousness over the celebration of its 100th anniversary.

| Summary/Abstract |
This study focuses on art projects that reflect human rights violations committed by the Guomindang (KMT) government on Taiwan during the Republic of China’s (ROC) White Terror Period between 1949 and 1991. It starts with a brief introduction to this historical period in Taiwan, followed by a discussion of artwork that seeks to preserve personal memories in the absence of official records. The paper contrasts official art projects initiated by KMT and Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) administrations in recent decades that aim to address the difficulties of transitional justice, such as the silence of victims, fading memories, and misapprehensions between generations, with spontaneous artwork that responds to the official narratives of past injustice.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article contains a special study of a famous group photograph of nine graduates from the Sun Yat-sen Communist University of the Toilers of China (Moscow Sun Yat-sen University). Using documents and photos from the Russian State Archive of Sociopolitical History (RGASPI), memoirs and correspondence, press materials, and academic research in Russian, Chinese, and English, uncovered during years of research, the authors examine the identities of the people in the photo, trace their lives before and after their time at the University, and try to determine their relations and when the photo may have been taken. All the young people were eager to fight for the common goal of participating in the revolution in China, but after graduating from the University, their lives took different paths. The article is being published on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party.

| Summary/Abstract |
Current literature on political marketing seldom investigates elections in non-Western regions or countries. The analysis of the Taipei mayoral elections (TMEs) can fill this academic vacuum. This article studies the election campaigns for the TMEs between 1994 and 2018 to understand and analyse the political marketing strategies used by candidates and political parties in Taiwan, an East Asian democracy. While the New Party (NP) stuck to a product-oriented strategy, the Kuomintang (KMT) and the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) employed sales-oriented strategies in most TMEs. This article argues that political parties with strong ideologies find it hard to use the market-oriented electoral strategy. The victory of Ko Wen-je in 2014 and 2018 TMEs can be analysed in terms of the successful employment of a market-oriented strategy. However, given the changing environment of local politics, Ko and his party, the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP), may not follow market-oriented strategies in future TMEs.

| Summary/Abstract |
While the judicial system is an important part of any given political regime, other than in a few Western countries, it has received comparatively little attention. This study employs vote-buying litigation as a litmus test to inquire whether or not the judiciary in Taiwan is politically biased in its judgments. Vote buying has long marred Taiwan's elections and the general public does not seem to trust the judicial system to be independent of political influences. This study examines the impact of political variables (including partisanship, whether candidates are elected or not, and the type of election) on court decisions in vote-buying litigation between 2000 and 2010. The article looks at these decisions at three levels: district courts, high courts, and the Supreme Court. The empirical findings indicate that the effects of political factors are considerably less an influence than expected on trial outcomes.

| Summary/Abstract |
In comparison with other major powers, relatively little has been written about the modern capabilities of the Chinese intelligence agencies. The public consciousness of Western audiences is certainly not infused with dramatic episodes equivalent to the United Kingdom's code-breaking successes against Nazi Germany during the Second World War, or the spy/counter-spy narrative which characterised the Cold War. Within China itself, there is such a narrative, but it is situated squarely within the context of the anti-Japanese war and in the post-war struggle between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Kuomintang (KMT), both campaigns in which intelligence played a significant role. This era is amply covered in both academic writings and an increasing array of novels, films and television series which form part of the CCP's ongoing Patriotic Education Campaign, established in the aftermath of the 1989 June 4 Incident.1 Far less coverage is devoted to China's contemporary intelligence capabilities, in particular in terms of successes in collecting against foreign targets. There is nothing remotely comparable to the huge expansion in academic writings on all aspects of intelligence that has developed in the West since the end of the Cold War.

| Summary/Abstract |
With the Kuomintang coming to power in Taiwan, relations between the island and the mainland entered a new phase distinguished by a qualitative intensification of economic integration, expanded contacts, and substantial improvement in the overall political atmosphere. Recognition of the Consensus of 1992 by both sides served as the foundation for further progress. The idea of concluding a peace treaty is under discussion, but the ambivalent attitude toward such an agreement among the Taiwanese (and possibly the PRC leadership) is a major stumbling block. The United States is not interested in Taiwan's independence movement, although it has no objection to selling Taipei military hardware. On the whole, the peaceful development of relations between the shores of the Taiwan Strait is distinguished by considerable stability.

| Summary/Abstract |
While most ethnic Chinese in northern Thailand are Thai citizens now, their everyday lives are a site where we can witness the political power entanglement of China, Taiwan and Thailand. With this in mind, this paper aims to look into the relationship between global China and overseas Chinese from the perspective of the ethnic Chinese in the northern borderlands of Thailand. The purpose is not just to disclose the multiplicity of global China in people's everyday lives, but also to complicate the picture of overseas Chinese as portrayed in top-down grand narratives about global China. I argue that the ongoing re-Sinicization in South-East Asia and the territorial geopolitics among China, Taiwan and Thailand have opened a conceptual space for the ethnic Chinese in northern Thailand to flexibly articulate themselves within the changing geopolitical economy. I use tea production and related Chinese-language education programmes, two separate but intertwined cases, to address these issues. By looking beyond the competition, conflict and dilemmas between China and Taiwan, I argue that Taiwan's previous engagement with agricultural transfer to Thailand and the rooting of pro-Taiwan identity and discourse in language education have paradoxically paved a way for China to stretch its influence into the everyday lives of the Chinese communities in the northern Thai borderlands.

| Summary/Abstract |
On October 6, 2020, Taiwan’s Legislative Yuan (parliament) passed two important Resolutions, moved by the main opposition party, the Kuomintang (KMT). These sought to ensure ‘US military aid in combating aggression by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’ and ‘a resumption of diplomatic relations between the US and Taiwan.’1 The ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) supported the Resolutions. Such a bipartisan consensus is rare in Taiwan’s deeply divided politics. This development underscored the political churn in KMT’s and Taiwan’s domestic politics, as well as its implications for cross-Strait relations.

| Summary/Abstract |
Over the last two and half decades the Kuomintang and Democratic Progressive party have dominated Taiwan's party system. From 2008-2012 they were the only parties represented in the Legislative Yuan. Nevertheless, there have been periods in which other parties have had a significant impact on the party system. These parties have received considerable media attention during and between campaigns, won significant members of parliamentary and local assembly seats, and affected the Taiwanese political agenda. In this paper I assess the impact of these small parties on the party system and offer some explanations for their electoral successes and failure over the last decade.
