SUMMARY:Taiwan Workshop featuring Wu Jieh-min — Weaponized Interdependence: How Taiwan Is Rethinking its “Silicon Shield”
DESCRIPTION:Google meet link\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Wu Jieh-min\, Distinguished Research Fellow\, Institute of Sociology\, Academia Sinica\, Taiwan; Co-founder\, Center for Contemporary China\, National Tsing Hua University \n\n\n\nModerator: Ya-Wen Lei\,  Professor\, Department of Sociology\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nThe “Silicon Shield” is often treated as a Taiwan-centered\, overly-fixed concept that emphasizes Taiwan’s technological indispensability as a rationale for its defense. This talk challenges that view by situating Taiwan within the deep and highly interdependent global semiconductor supply chain. It argues that Taiwan’s future industrial development depends on deeper integration with democratic partners—an approach through which Taiwan can contribute to the rebuilding of U.S. high-tech manufacturing while also strengthening its own global economic position. \n\n\n\nWu Jieh-min is a Distinguished Research Fellow at the Institute of Sociology\, Academia Sinica\, Taiwan\, and a co-founder of the Center for Contemporary China at National Tsing Hua University. His research focuses on geopolitics\, democratization\, and development\, with particular attention to Taiwan–China relations\, Hong Kong–China relations\, and the global political economy. He is the author of Rival Partners: How Taiwanese Entrepreneurs and Guangdong Officials Forged the China Development Model (Harvard University Asia Center\, 2022)\, which received the 2023 ASA Global and Transnational Sociology Best Publication Award by an International Scholar. He is currently working on a book project titled Global Taiwan. \n\n\n\nGoogle Meet Link: https://meet.google.com/puv-bqok-zwt \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Taiwan Workshop featuring Peter Dutton — What is the Legal Status of Taiwan and Why Does it Matter?
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Peter Dutton\, Senior Research Fellow\, Paul Tsai China Center; Professor Emeritus\, U.S. Naval War College \n\n\n\nDiscussants: Alastair Iain Johnston\, Professor\, Government Department\, Harvard UniversityWilliam P. Alford\, Jerome A. and Joan L. Cohen Professor of Law; Director\, East Asian Legal Studies Program; Chair\, Harvard Law School Project on Disability\, Harvard Law School \n\n\n\nTaiwan’s political status often dominates headlines. Yet its legal status — the foundation of U.S. policy — remains underdiscussed. At this event\, Paul Tsai China Center Senior Fellow Dr. Peter Dutton will trace Taiwan’s territorial status from the Qing Dynasty to the present day\, shedding light on the legal principles and historical developments that define its position in the world.  \n\n\n\nPeter Dutton is a senior research fellow at the Paul Tsai China Center and Professor Emeritus at the U.S. Naval War College. Before coming to Yale\, Dutton served the U.S. Navy for more than 40 years in active duty and civilian capacities. He has advised a series of Pacific Fleet Commanders\, Secretaries of Defense\, Chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff\, and other government offices on policies in the Asia-Pacific region and testified before the Senate and the House on a variety of China-related issues. He was also a professor of international law and China studies at the U.S. Naval War College\, where he directed the China Maritime Studies Institute and served as dean of the Center for Naval Warfare Studies. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
