As the first English-language book on Taiwan’s relations with Latin America, this book examines the major issues and theoretical debates on Taiwan’s activities in Latin America, and its relations with the US and China. Latin America has become a crucial frontline for Taiwan. Today, more than at any time since the end of WWII, Taiwan’s future as an independent state hinges on the balance of power between the United States and China. This book provides the most detailed and sophisticated analysis of contemporary Taiwan’s relations with Latin America and offers insight into the US-China rivalry in the “backyard” of the United States. By bringing together a group of scholars from Taiwan, US, and Latin America, this book examines Taiwan-Latin America relations on various issues amid the intensifying the US-China strategic competition, such as public diplomacy, trade, investment, energy, and cultural exchanges. More than ever before, an understanding of Taiwan’s relations with Latin America and the great power rivalry in the Western Hemisphere is essential for students and policy makers alike. The book will be of great interest to university students at all levels, as well as specialists on international relations, foreign policy, as well as Asian and Latin American studies.

Although studies of the rise of China have increased exponentially, there has been far less attention to its impact in Latin America, so this book should be welcomed. Editors He Li and Antonio C. Hsiang, with long expertise in the field, bring together a group of leading scholars from both the Americas and Taiwan with different historical, theoretical, and comparative approaches.... Accessible to general readers with interests in both diplomacy and history, this book contributes to understanding the ceaseless diplomatic efforts of Taiwan to survive in a shrinking global space.
