Description
Summary:碩士 === 南華大學 === 國際暨大陸事務學系亞太研究碩士班 === 100 ===   The main purpose of this research is to examine the PRC’s Taiwan policies since 2005. The differences of China’s Taiwan policies under Jiang Zemin’s and Hu Jintao’s rule are the reason that the author chooses this research topic. After the KMT chairman-Lien Chan visiting of China in 2005, Beijing releases may benefits to Taiwan through the KMT-CCP forums. Observing the past KMT-CCP forums, we can see that Beijing implemented its soft powers by economic and cultural ways. After president Ma Ying-Jeou taking office, Beijing signs many agreements and releases many benefits to Taipei in the Jiang-Chen talks continually. Beijing’s implementing of its soft power toward Taipei will deepen the dependence of Taiwan on China economically, and will influence the decision-making of the central government of Taiwan. Beijing’s implanting of soft power will also arise the Chinese influence on Taiwan culturally. The PRC’s soft strategies on its Taiwan policies are similar to the ‘soft power’ theory proposed by Joseph Nye. After using the ‘soft power’ theory to analyze the PRC’s Taiwan polices after 2005, the study found that Beijing’s use economic and cultural soft powers will influence Taiwan’s national identity. Therefore, Taiwan should keep alert and should try to pursue ‘win-win’ situation in the following KMT-CCP forums and Jiang-Chen talks.
