Abstract
The improvement of the China-Taiwan relationship since 2008 reshapes not only the economic ties between Taipei and Beijing but also the security dialogue over the Taiwan Strait. A new economic framework agreement (ECFA), multiple exchanges and high level meetings have characterized the re-engagement between two traditional enemies. In parallel, the development of a “Taiwanese” nationalism, that is slowly replacing the traditional “Chinese” nationalism that deeply changes the nature of the relation, as well as its finality, has been observed. This article explores the current Cross-Strait relation-ship. Instead of focusing on the possibility of a reunification, it suggests that deepening economic and cultural cooperation might boost confidence that will implement possible peace agreement in a longer term.
