Sports and Foreign Policy in Taiwan: Nationalism in International Politics (St. James's Studies in World Affair) by Catherine Kai-Ping Lin - 2019

Academica Press, LLC, 2019. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. In a revision of her doctoral dissertation at Georgetown University, Lin examines Taiwan's diplomatic history since the 1970s with an emphasis on the extent to which nationalism has influenced its foreign relations. Since 1971, when the Republic of China on Taiwan lost its United Nations seat, she says, the country has gradually shifted its foreign policy from "One-China" aspirations for reconquering the mainland to a cautious promotion of Taiwan as an independent country in the face of continuing non-recognition.
