Julien Oeuillet writes that the recall elections in Taiwan are part of a greater political realignment

"...the real divide in Taiwanese politics is not between blue and green voters, and certainly not between pro or anti-CCP views. It is between those who fear China as the most urgent threat, and those who believe that the cost of living and economic pressure are more dangerous in the short term."

A very positive review of Chris Horton's new book about Taiwan, Ghost Nation

"...what elevates the book above policy commentary or journalistic chronicle is its insistence on treating Taiwan not merely as a geopolitical flashpoint, but as a living, breathing democracy with its own stories, contradictions, and ghosts."
