Abstract

The People's Republic of China (PRC), the Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong, the Republic of China (Taiwan) and the Republic of Singapore represent different types of political regimes and provide a fascinating contrast concerning their performance with regard to the global conflict between liberal democracies and autocracies. This paper examines briefly their common historical backgrounds and provides a detailed analysis of common ‘Asian’ cultural features and popular support for democracy on the micro-level. It then systematically assesses their performance concerning liberal democracy and quality, governance scores, and socio-economic development. Finally, the reactions to the Covid-19 pandemic are documented showing again specific regime characteristics. We use most recent V-Dem, World Bank, United Nations Development Programme, World Values Surveys and similar data. The conclusions point to possible international consequences and the crucial position of Taiwan.

比较政权类型——东亚“最相似”的案例

中华人民共和国（PRC）、香港特别行政区、中华民国（台湾）和新加坡共和国代表了不同类型的政治政权，并就它们在自由民主国家与专制国家之间的全球冲突中的表现形成了鲜明对比。本文简要考察了他们共同的历史背景，并从微观层面详细分析了共同的“亚洲”文化特征和民众对民主的支持。然后，它系统地评估了他们在自由民主和质量、治理得分和社会经济发展方面的表现。最后，对新冠肺炎大流行的反应再次显示出特定的制度特征。我们使用了最新的V-Dem、世界银行、联合国开发计划署、世界价值观调查和类似数据。结论指出了台湾可能面临的国际后果和关键地位。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
