Editorial Reviews
Review
"Scholars in Taiwan began looking closely at the Japanese colonial era between ten and twenty years ago. This interesting and broad-ranging volume is the first to bring that research out in a widely accessible, English-language forum. Taiwan in the Twentieth Century makes a very useful and original contribution to the field of Taiwan studies. Historians and social scientists alike will enjoy the book, which would also be useful for teaching courses in the history and historiography of Taiwan, China, and imperial Japan." The Journal of Asian Studies

Product Description
This collection brings together a group of experts on Taiwan who attempt to analyze change on this dynamic island during the twentieth century. Thus, in contrast to many works on Taiwan, this collection reveals how important the Japanese colonial antecedents were to the formation of today's Taiwan and illuminates the complexity of the problems this island will face in the twenty-first century.
