| Abstract: |
| After the Taiwan Strait Crisis in 1995-96 , the semi-official dialogue channel was shut down because of the political gridlock over the "One China" principle. But, on the other hand, trade and investment across the strait began to boom. Rapid developments in socio-economic relations are transforming the relationship and have delineated other areas of interactions between the two societies. How could this situation come about? Why could political relation and economic integration run in parallel? Are political unification and economic integration mutually exclusive or inclusive? What are the future prospects for cross-Strait relations? This study will address these questions. |
