內容簡介
內容簡介 Taiwan Undaunted explores the emergence of Taiwanese nationhood and identity, from colonial and dynastic times to its democratic awakening. Drawing on over eighty in-depth interviews conducted across the island as part of an eponymous documentary film, the author blends personal anecdotes and sharp analysis to capture how ordinary Taiwanese see themselves - their aspirations, dreams, hopes, and fears. At the centre of this account lie the tensions between Taiwan's indigenous heritage, immigrant roots and the geopolitical complexities across the strait. With China's territorial claims intensifying, the book reflects on the resilience of Taiwan's democracy and the uncertain future that lies ahead.
