Ocean governance in practice: A study of the application of marine science and technology research techniques to maritime law enforcement in Taiwan

The research looks into the relationship between technology, international law, and marine policy in Taiwan, specifically looking at how these three factors interact to influence the way the maritime environment is monitored, understood, and regulated. The research explores how cutting-edge innovation has improved sustainable marine resource management by reshaping data collecting, analysis, and decision-making via a comprehensive literature review and case studies focused on Taiwan. The impact of international law, and UNCLOS in particular, on the standards and technologies used in marine resource management is a significant topic covered in the paper. Q&A sessions with experts in maritime policy, technology, and international law provide a qualitative analysis of the current state of marine affairs in Taiwan. The research shows that technology has revolutionized the way Taiwan oversees and monitors its marine environment. More effective and cooperative ocean governance has resulted from the rise of evidence-based decision-making made possible by technological advancements. An example of the regulatory impact of international law is UNCLOS, which sets standards for the sustainable management of marine resources and directs the use of technology. In spite of geopolitical obstacles, Taiwan is well-positioned for successful marine conservation and sustainable resource use thanks to its all-encompassing approach, which is based on continuing conversations and partnerships and is in line with worldwide technological advances and changing regulatory frameworks. This study highlights the interconnected nature of technology, international law, and marine policy, and how these factors influence Taiwan's strategy for preserving marine resources for the future.

Strategi Aliansi Pemerintah Taiwan Terhadap Ancaman Republik Rakyat China dari Tahun 2018

This journal analyzes and describes what strategies are prepared by Taiwan to deal with threats from China. In this case, China has ambitions to regain control of Taiwan which they consider as part of its sovereignty. While Taiwan itself considers that they are an independent country. This study aims to see Taiwan's strategy in dealing with security threats from China. This research methodology uses descriptive qualitative research with a framework of thinking using the concept of Bandwagoning. By using this concept, it can be seen that Taiwan uses an alliance with the US to counter security threats from China. The strong form of the alliance between the two can be seen in the establishment of the Taiwan Relations Act (TRA) Security Agreement which is applied in the security agreement where the US is committed to protecting Taiwan from Chinese military attacks and selling weapons to Taiwan to ward off security threats from China

Impacto geopolítico, económico y sanitario del SARS-Cov-2 (COVID-19) a nivel mundial: Taiwán un referente mundial después de sus experiencias en la epidemia de SARS-Cov-1

La pandemia del SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) superó a 10 veces más la propagación del virus que el SARS-CoV-1 del 2002. Causó una gran recesión económica que se sumó a la crisis económica del 2020. Colapsó los sistemas públicos y privados de los países desarrollados que subestimaron la virulencia y mutación viral, especialmente en Italia y España, resultando en 372.756 casos confirmados y 16231 muertes (4.3% de casos totales) a nivel global. Países como Singapur y Taiwán, desarrollaron sus protocolos con la epidemia del SARS-Cov-1, y demostraron al mundo como ser eficientes a una amenaza biológica mundial. Actualmente, sus estrategias permiten aplanar la curva de propagación del COVID-19, y fueron referentes mundiales para afrontar la pandemia localmente. Por otro lado, China Continental, compite con EE.UU. por el poder económico y político de las regiones, así como el desarrollo de una vacuna para finales del 2020. En cuanto a las estrategias e indicadores asociados al COVID-19 y su impacto político en salud y en la economía local, Ecuador, localizado en Sudamérica, con 17 millones de habitantes, y un PIB de 9.5% destinado a la salud pública, se convirtió en el segundo país con mayor prevalencia de casos (n=981) y se ubicó en el puesto 26º en el mundo. Las estrategias parciales tomadas a nivel nacional, sumado a la falta de cultura preventiva de la sociedad ecuatoriana, propagaron rápidamente el COVID-19. La falta de gestión de insumos médicos, y la escasez del personal médico (15 médicos por cada 10.000 habitantes), así como déficit de camas hospitalarias (tasa=1.4/1.000 habitantes/nivel nacional [0.8 del sector público], por debajo de Cuba con 5.4) y pruebas de PCR-RT, pone en peligro el sistema de salud de colapsarse, por el aumento exponencial del virus COVID-19 analizado hasta la 6ta semana del impacto local. Sin embargo, el análisis de PIB% entre Ecuador (PIB=9.5%) y Taiwán (PIB=6.3%), y las medidas estratégicas empleadas, rectifican que el sistema universal de salud de Taiwán, es muy eficiente en estrategias y respuestas a la emergencia del COVID-19. Estrategias de Taiwán han sido reflejadas en nuestro entorno para aplanar la curva epidemiológica y reducir el gasto público local. 

Taiwan's Soft Power and Public Diplomacy

This paper analyses how Taiwan exercises “soft power” and uses public diplomacy to engage with the international community, and to compensate for the absence of formal diplomatic relations with major powers. The research suggests that Taiwan's strategies of international engagement are constrained by its external and internal political environments. The international system (structure) has locked Taiwan into a set of challenging arrangements over which it has little control or influence, while Taiwan's public diplomacy architecture and the activities organised and undertaken by its government agencies in Taibei and its representatives abroad (agency) reveal, at best, a misunderstanding of how Taiwan's soft power might be exercised more effectively. The strategic thematic choices of legitimacy (invoking Taiwan's international status) versus credibility (which in soft power terms offers the most benefit), and the decision to privilege cultural over political themes in international communications, all have profound effects on the success of Taiwan's soft power.

Fast-Follower Industrial Dynamics: The Case of Taiwan's Emergent Solar Photovoltaic Industry

The world is on the cusp of major transformations of energy systems, with solar photovoltaic (PV) systems providing one of the most promising alternatives to fossil fuels. Amongst the countries moving to take advantage of the new production possibilities thus being opened up is Taiwan, employing in this new sector its characteristic strategies of fast followership that it has perfected in earlier industrial shifts involving semiconductors, ICT products and flat panel displays. This paper provides an interim assessment of Taiwan's early entry strategies, involving a focus on mainstream crystalline silicon solar cells, as well as entry into emerging niche sectors such as thin-film second-generation cells and concentrated solar cells utilizing novel semiconductor materials. Taiwan firms’ fast-follower strategies are highlighted and assessed in light of the literature on industrial dynamics and catch-up processes generally. The paper makes a contribution to theory in building nine propositions regarding fast followership, based on prior industrial experiences and this latest episode in the solar PV industry. Taiwan's strategies as a model for China are discussed, while the paper proposes Taiwan as an alternative to the “closed” and “open” models of photovoltaic diffusion identified for Japan and the USA.

Cooperation and Conflict: The Offense-Defense Balance in Cross-Strait Relations

With political relations between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait in transition, the possible consequences of Taiwan's strategies toward mainland China warrant special attention. This article focuses on Taiwan's relations with mainland China under the rubric of cooperative security and their implications for the offense-defense balance of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. Particular attention will be given to efforts to prevent cross-Strait conflict as suggested by the neoliberal school of thought, i.e., cooperative security measures such as the creation of the Council for Security Cooperation in the Asia-Pacific (CSCAP); and the neorealist approach, i.e., ameliorating the security dilemma by incorporating Taiwan in the Theater Missile Defense (TMD) system as proposed by the U.S. Republican Party (GOP). This article throws new light on these issues and raises questions about the utility of these approaches.
