This book explores the key role Taiwan has played in facilitating China's economic "miracle." Rigger argues that without Taiwanese investment, the PRC would be decades behind its current position in the global economy. She also looks toward the future and asks whether Taiwan can maintain its status as a leader in China's economic development.
A leading authority on Taiwan, Shelley Rigger is Brown Professor of Political Science at Davidson College in North Carolina. She earned a PhD in government from Harvard University and has been studying and visiting Taiwan for nearly four decades. She has been a visiting researcher at National Chengchi University in Taipei and a visiting professor at Fudan University in Shanghai. Her books include Why Taiwan Matters: Small Island, Global Powerhouse, and she consults for the US government on East Asian national security issues.
