Description

Explore the profound transformation of Taiwan through the lens of social and cultural evolution. As Taiwan moved from an impoverished, war-torn nation to a developed country with significant wealth and a large trade surplus, its identity underwent a massive shift. This book examines the impact of a growing, better-educated urban population on the nation's social fabric. Written by Stevan Harrell, an experienced researcher who has conducted anthropological studies in Taiwan since the late 1960s, this work fills a significant gap in existing literature. While much attention is paid to the economic changes in the region, this text focuses on the cultural shifts that define the modern Taiwanese experience. It is an essential resource for students and readers interested in the history and social development of East Asia.
