- Summary
- This book describes the central issues animating the dynamic U.S.-Taiwan-China relationship and the international and domestic legal issues shaping U.S. policy in the Asia-Pacific region. Two of these issues receive particular attention: Taiwan's status under international law and the role of the Taiwan Relations Act (TRA) in the formulation of U.S. policy toward Taiwan. Taiwan meets the requirements for statehood under international law, but it lacks the stature of a normalized state in the international community. This book endorses the central purpose of the TRA—maintaining peaceful cross-strait relations—while offering policy alternatives that will empower Taiwan to participate more actively in the international arena.
