Abstract

The specific international situation of Taiwan is reflected in the self-identification of its residents. The island’s population can choose between Chinese, Taiwanese and Chinese-Taiwanese national identities. The complicated history only deepens the confusion associated with the self-determination of the islanders. Their final choice may have global consequences, as it may contribute to the war of the great powers. At present, however, it is an interesting example of building a nation that needs to be explored
in order to get to know better nation building processes.
