This article reviews the key political developments in Taiwan in 2023. Although no elections were held this year, elections dominated the political agenda. Once the candidates were selected, the main parties debated a range of issues, including Taiwan's international relations, the state of the economy, and nuclear power.

Since the 1997 election, Wales has experienced a significant transformation in its system of governance with the establishment of the devolved National Assembly for Wales. Some of the salient features of the pre-campaign phase of the election include the number of women candidates for available seats & the status of "safe seats." The nature of the campaigns of Labour, the Plaid Cymru, the Conservatives, & the Liberal Democrats are described. One implication for the future is that Labour cannot assume that it will be victorious in 2003. 1 Figure. E. Larsen

"This book examines and reviews some of the key figures in Taiwan Studies to plot the development of the field by revisiting their earlier influential books and bodies of work. Often autobiographical in detail, each chapter asks the author to discuss the origins of their research and how their engagement with the field has developed since. The contributors then discuss their methodologies, fieldwork and arguments, as well as how their work was received at the time. They also go on to reflect on their chosen methods and core findings, assessing whether they have stood the test of time. Reflecting the diversity of the Taiwan Studies field, subjects covered in this volume include sociology, musicology, linguistics, comparative politics, international relations and anthropology. As such, this comprehensive overview adopts a distinctly interdisciplinary approach to understanding Taiwan. Painting a picture of the changing state of international Taiwan Studies through the work of leading scholars, this book will be invaluable to students and scholars of Taiwan Studies, Chinese Studies and Asian politics, culture and society"--
