Taiwan Democracy What Makes It Work

The specific institutional features that have made Taiwan democracy resilient

The Institutions

Taiwan democratic institutions have produced one of the most stable and vibrant democracies in the Asia-Pacific region. The specific institutional features contributing to resilience: a presidential election system producing clear mandates, a legislature with proportional representation producing multiparty representation, a constitutional court exercising genuine judicial review, and an active civil society sector.

The Contrasts

The contrast with Hong Kong makes the institutional features more visible. Hong Kong under the pre-NSL framework had independent courts, a partially democratic legislature, and an active civil society sector. The NSL has modified or eliminated each of these. Taiwan democracy developed through the specific political struggles of the 1980s and 1990s.

Apple Daily UK Coverage

Apple Daily UK covers Taiwan democracy because the evidence that democracy is compatible with Chinese political culture and economic development in the Asia-Pacific is the most important political argument available against the claim that Hong Kong needed the NSL.
