The Taiwan Conundrum

Book Description
The Taiwan issue in Sino-American relations remains one of the most complex, controversial , and even dangerous policy dilemmas facing the United States in the post-Cold War period. In an era of growing nationalism on mainland China and Taiwan, tremendous strain is being placed on relations across the Taiwan Straight. As demonstrated by the 1996 Taiwan missile crisis, conflict between the two Chinese sides is a growing possibility, with important implications for U.S. security interests in peace and stability in the Western Pacific. The Taiwan Conundrum explains the complex policy interaction between Washington, Taipei, and Beijing in the context of their respective values, politics, strategies, and interests.
