Abstract
This paper analyzing cross-strait exchanges and regulatory management shows that the legal systems on which the management of cross-strait exchanges is dependent, starting from the National Security Law during the period of the National Mobilization for the Suppression of the Communist Rebellion to the Act Governing Relations between Peoples of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area and the related subsidiary laws, are not independently existing from their temporal and spatial backgrounds wherein changes in the political and economic conditions affect the adjustments made on these systems. In constructing the model of the management of cross-strait exchanges, this study connects the political and economic changes during the period 1987-2005, wherein the key actors include the roles played by the U.S. China, and Taiwan, as well as the position taken by each major political party regarding cross-strait exchange models. In order to gain an understanding of their behaviors as well as to manage and control the gathering of resources and their application, we have categorized the operational system of Taiwan’s China policy into three different stages: the activation of Taiwan’s efforts to promote cross-strait affairs (1987-1989), the formation period of the operational system of Taiwan’s China policy (1990-1999), and the period after the political power reshuffle in Taiwan (2000-2005). We shall describe the influential factors in and out of Taiwan and in China, as well as the major policy ideas in the government’s work on China affairs, the exchange and management structure that has been formed through the implementation of openness and management measures, the integration of civic forces, the division of labor among various organizations, and institutionalized management procedures. From the outset of this paper, we propose a hypothesis that “cross-strait exchanges and regulatory management” are geared toward “integration” step by step. Furthermore, we try to provide an explanation for this phenomenon. Moreover, according to this result, we propose a counteraction model. This counteraction model will construct five different types of exchange and management models based on the core ideal of preserving national security, namely, the strategy management of cross-strait exchanges, the institutionalization of cross-strait management, exchanges through the subdivision of various aspects, local government participation, and the application of administrative contacts. In other words, this model is centered on how to have a strategic thinking in carrying out management and openness measures; how to institutionalize the creation of a stable environment conducive to exchanges; how to carry out a division of labor by entrusting various tasks and providing financial support in order to enable the local governments to participate in the management of China affairs; how to work with the civic sector to promote exchanges and management by signing administrative contacts; how to apply a subdivided exchange model to avoid going astray from the main purposes and further enhance the quality of exchanges.
