Institute Of Taiwan History, Preparatory Office Institute of taiwan history, Preparatory Office The Temporary Building of the Preparatory Office The establishment of the Institute of taiwan history's Preparatory Office in June 1993 marked the culmination of a long formatory process. http://www.sinica.edu.tw/as/intro/ith.html

Institute of Taiwan History, Preparatory Office The Temporary Building of the Preparatory Office The Temporary Building of the Preparatory Office RESEARCH Taiwan's geographic location has caused it to change hands many times, resulting in an abundant and diverse historical record. Taiwanese history is generally divided into five periods: prehistoric, Dutch-Spanish colonization, conquest by Koxinga, Ch'ing empire, Japanese Occupation, and post-War (Republic). This makes the study of Taiwan's history difficult, because each period possesses its own unique characteristics and each ruling people represents a different culture, language, and ethnic group. This office will stress the following aspects of development: research techniques, research methodologies, and research topics. RESEARCH TECHNIQUES Emphasis will be placed on appropriate division of labor as well as cooperative projects. Many people outside Academia Sinica have eagerly awaited the Institute of Taiwan History's founding, but due to the limited size of research staff, it is presently impossible to research all facets of Taiwanese history. Therefore, the Institute plans to engage in cooperative projects with researchers from other institutes at Academa Sinica and other academic organizations in Taiwan and abroad, in order to coordinate efforts on specific research projects. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY The Office plans to emphasize interdisciplinary research, because historical studies encompass a range of academic fields. The Institute of Taiwan History's success will depend on the support of scholars representing a broad scope of research interests who can cooperate in research projects. The Office hopes that such interdisciplinary cooperation will result in the establishment of theoretical models for interpreting Taiwan history which will con-tribute to elevating this field's status worldwide.

Top After the handover, life for Taiwan's citizens doesn't change much under the rule of China's Nationalist forces (called the Kuomingtang, or KMT). Their hopes that the end of Japan's rule would liberate Taiwan turned to frustration. The KMT and immigrating mainlanders prolong the country's problems.

The island was reached in 1590 by the Portuguese, who named it Formosa [=beautiful]. In 1624 the Dutch founded forts in the south at present Tainan, while the Spanish established bases in the north. The Dutch, however, succeeded in expelling the Spaniards in 1641 and assumed control of the entire island. They in turn were forced to abandon Taiwan in 1662, when Koxinga , a general of the Ming dynasty of China who had to flee from the Manchus, seized the island and established an independent kingdom. However, the island fell to the Manchus in 1683. Chinese immigration increased, and the aboriginal population was gradually pushed into the interior. Japan, attracted by the island's strategic and economic importance, acquired Taiwan by the Treaty of Shimonoseki (1895) after the First

In the turbulent and tangled history of modern China, Sun Yat-sen holds a unique place. Claimed as a personal inspiration and political guide by the most bitterly opposed political parties, he is known to millions as "the Father of the Chinese Revolution." Yet his own life was a constant scramble for livelihood and influence, he spent much of his time in exile, and almost none of his cherished schemes came near to fruition. The twin strands of inspiration and failure define the relationship between his life and the history of his country. The contest for leadership of China after Sun Yat-sen's death had several contenders but one clear favorite: Chiang Kai-shek.

home search help worldguide ... Related Weblinks Taiwan History Little archaeological evidence remains from Taiwan's early history. People - probably Pacific Islanders at first - may have lived here for about 10,000 years, with migration from China beginning in the 15th century. In 1517 Portuguese sailors reached Taiwan and named it Ilha Formosa, or beautiful island. The Dutch invaded in 1624 and built a capital at Tainan - two years later they lost the island to a Spanish invasion, but returned the favour by booting the Spanish out in 1641. During the 1660s the Ming and Manchu dynasties arrived on the scene, kicking out the Dutch and wrestling one another for control of the island. The Manchus eventually won, making Taiwan a county of Fujian Province and triggering a flood of Chinese immigration. Japan took Taiwan from China in 1895 and held on to it until the end of WWII, when it was handed back to China. When Communist forces took control of China in 1949, the president, General Chiang Kaishek, and his nationalist party, the Kuomintang, fled to Taiwan to plan their reconquest of the mainland. They're still planning. One and a half million Chinese also left the mainland for Taiwan when Mao took control. The leaders of both Communist mainland China and the Republic of China (Taiwan) claim to be the voice of all China, but the international community has, almost without exception, chosen the mainland. In 1971 the Kuomintang lost the Chinese United Nations seat, and in 1979 the USA withdrew its recognition of the Republic.

BACK TO THE FRONT PAGE BASIC INFO. GEOGRAPHY GOVERNMENT ... TAIWAN Taiwan, located off the coast of China, came to prominence in 1949 when the Nationalist forces (about two million strong) retreated from the Mainland as Communism took over the country. For decades, the world recognized Taiwan as the legitimate government of China but in 1971, Communist China assumed the United Nations seat that had been occupied by Taiwan. Eight years later, Taiwan's firmest ally, the United States, recognized the People's Republic of China. Worries that Taiwan would be harmed economically were misplaced and in the decades since, it has become one of the strongest in the world. Taiwan's government has maintained coolness towards any suggestion that Taiwan 'reunify' with the Communist Mainland.

Taiwan History Taiwan Under the Dutch (1624 - 1662) Taiwan's experiences at thehands of the Western imperialists did not really begin until after Portuguese navigators discovered the island and named it Ilha Formosa ('beautiful island') in 1590. While the Portuguese were the first Westerners to sight and name the island, they did not, however, attempt colonisation. It was the Dutch who decided to colonise Taiwan and make it a part of their empire in Southeast Asia. In 1595, a Dutch merchant named Cornelius Houtman formed the Dutch East India Company that was based in Batavia (today's Jakarta) on the island of Java in the Spice Islands (Indonesia). The Dutch East India Company eventually annexed the whole of the Southeast Asian archipelago, and the Spice Islands became known as the Dutch East Indies. The Dutch were not only primarily interested in the profits that could be made from trading spices like cinnamon, cloves, pepper and nutmeg, but were also eager to trade with the Chinese. However, continually frustrated by Chinese refusals to allow the establishment of a Dutch trading post on its territory, Dutch forces wrested the Pescadores - a small group of islands just of the west coast of Taiwan - from the Chinese in 1622 and established a military base. From the Pescadores, they threatened China with further reprisals unless given a trading post, and harassed the already profitable Portuguese trade with Japan, China and the Philippines. The Dutch also lay further claim to Taiwan by establishing a small settlement on the island of Taoyuan, just off the south coast of Taiwan.

TAIWAN’S HISTORY AT-A-GLANCE HISTORY OF COLONIALISM TAIWAN AFTER WWII After WWII, the Allies went on to consolidate the world map. The Soviet Union entered Eastern Europe. The United States returned to the Philippines. The United Kingdom re-colonized Malaysia. France re-occupied Vietnam. The Republic of China, also a member of the Allies, was entrusted with the governance of Taiwan. The Taiwanese holocaust of 1947 has come to be known as the “2-28 Massacre ” or simply “2-28”. In 1949, the Republic of China government took refuge in Taiwan after Chinese communists won the Chinese civil war. In the subsequent four decades, Taiwan was under Martial Law and the families of "2-28” victims were continuously harassed and discriminated by the self-imposed Chinese government. The Taiwanese were afraid of any discussion of “2-28” but the memory of “2-28” never died. With the recent democratization, the Taiwanese have gradually taken control of the government and in 1997, February 28 th became a national holiday for the country, ironically, called the Republic of China on Taiwan.
