Abstract

Abstract:After the 2016 elections, cross-Strait relations have fallen to their lowest point since the Third Strait Crisis. A proliferation of state-driven strategic narratives by both sides has since emerged. Against Beijing's narratives of "national rejuvenation," peaceful reunification, and "1992 Consensus," the Tsai administration has contraposed an image of Taiwan as a "beacon" of freedom and democracy in the Indo-Pacific. By tracing the tenets and the operationalization of Beijing and Taipei's strategic communications from the late 2000s to 2020, this article shows how Chinese and Taiwanese actors' reactions to the systemic pressure of a shifting East Asian regional order have progressively shaped cross-Strait communicative dynamics, severely constraining the range of options that could overcome the current impasse.

海峡两岸没有共识:有争议的地区秩序中的中国和台湾战略沟通

摘要:2016年大选后，两岸关系跌至第三次海峡危机以来的最低点。此后，双方都出现了大量由国家驱动的战略叙事。与北京的“民族复兴”、和平统一和“九二共识”的叙述相反，蔡英文政府将台湾视为印度太平洋地区自由和民主的“灯塔”。通过追溯北京和台北从2000年代末到2020年战略沟通的原则和运作，本文展示了中国和台湾参与者对东亚地区秩序变化的系统性压力的反应如何逐步塑造了两岸沟通的动态，严重限制了可以克服当前僵局的选择范围。
