Legislative Behavior and Intraparty Dynamics in Taiwan

Fri, September 1, 2:00 to 3:30pm PDT (2:00 to 3:30pm PDT), LACC, 507

Session Submission Type: Created Panel

Session Description

In democratic systems, the Congress serves a dual role as both a veto player and an agenda setter for public policies. At the same time, legislators must weigh the trade-off between following the party line and representing their own district. This panel features three articles (Hwang and Chen, Chen, and Teh) that examine the paradoxical nature of legislators in Taiwan. Additionally, two other articles (Chen and Chien) offer unique perspectives on party politics and migration policies further deepening our understanding of Taiwanese politics.
