Topic: Cross-Strait Relations and Electoral Politics in Taiwan
Speaker: Lu-huei CHEN
(Distinguished Research Fellow of Election Study Center/ Professor of
Political Science Department, National Chengchi University, Taiwan
Visiting Scholar of Political Science Department, MIT)
Time and Location: 5/8/2015 10AM~12AM, South Kedzie Hall, Room 104.

Cross-Strait relations play important role on electoral politics in Taiwan.
Increasing economic exchange together with warming political engagements
make today’s cross-Strait relations a very unique case in the study of
public opinion Taiwan. Because of economic prosperity of China, people in
Taiwan might consider the expansion of trade and other forms of
cross-Strait exchanges will lead to prosperity of Taiwan. However, growing
trade ties also mean that Taiwan’s economic reliance on the mainland
increases day by day, and it could eventually result in political
unification—an outcome that majority of people in Taiwan do not want. The
long-standing antagonism across the Strait, especially visible in their
different governing systems and ideological attitudes, has produced
something close to two separate countries and contrasting national
identities.
Dr. Chen was former Director of Election Study Center of National Chengchi
University in Taiwan, and he will present long-term polling tracks to
demonstrate how cross-Strait relations might affect electoral politics in
Taiwan.
