Transformation! Innovation?

Perspectives on Taiwan Culture. Edited by Christina Neder and Ines Susanne Schilling. 14 contributions, two of them in Chinese (with abstract in English), address the public discourse on cultural identity at the end of the 20th century which included not only the transformation from an autocratic to a democratic system but also the end of the cultural hegemony of the mainlanders on the island. The transformation process paved the way for further cultural innovation, the keywords here being education reform, language debate, establishment of new academic disciplines, historiographic reconstruction etc. It has also led to a widespread discussion of a specifically Taiwanese cultural identity which is reflected in literature, language, art, theatre and film. 235 Seiten mit 10 Abb. und Tab., broschiert (studia formosiana; Vol. 1/Harrassowitz Verlag 2003)
