時間：2024年11月12日12:30-14:00

地點：台灣大學社科院108室

主持人：黃長玲 （Chang-Ling HUANG）臺灣大學亞比中心主任以及政治學系教授 （Director of the GARC and Professor of the Department of Political Science, National Taiwan University）

演講大綱：

曾經被認為不利民主發展的亞洲國家，在戰後成功實現了民主化，一邊深化民主制度，一邊持續經濟現代化。臺灣、韓國、戰後日本以及東南亞其他國家凸顯民主與發展之間的聯繫。然而，與世界其他地區不同，亞洲的民主轉型以獨特的方式展開——並非在威權解體後的廢墟中誕生，而是由相對強大的威權政權引入。激烈的政治抵抗和勇敢的反對派促使舊政權考慮「以實力促民主」的轉型之路。

基於莊教授（Joseph Wong）與丹·斯萊特（Dan Slater）合著的最新著作《從經濟發展到民主：現代亞洲轉型之路的不同面貌》及其二十多年對該地區的研究，黃教授對亞洲民主的前景持樂觀態度；強調威權政權（如中國的中共）應該及早實現民主化的必要性；並指出台灣在揭示亞洲民主未來挑戰所扮演的領導角色。

Speech: Asia’s Democratic Promise

Speaker: JOSEPH YIT-CHONG WONG（Vice President for International Affairs and Professor of the Department of Political Science, University of Toronto）

Host: Chang-Ling HUANG （Director of the GARC and Professor of the Department of Political Science, National Taiwan University）

Time: 12:30-14:00

Date: 12 November, 2024

Venue: Room 108, College of Social Sciences, National Taiwan University

Speech introduction

Once thought to be inhospitable to democracy, several Asian countries have successfully democratized in the postwar period, deepening their democracies while continuing to economically modernize. Countries like Taiwan, South Korea, postwar Japan and others in Southeast Asia demonstrate the connection between democracy and development. And yet, unlike in many other regions of the world, democratic transformation in Asia has unfolded in a distinctive way – rather than emerge from the ashes of collapsed authoritarianism, democracy was introduced by relatively strong autocratic regimes. Contentious politics and courageous opposition prompted the ancien regimes to consider “democracy through strength.” Drawing on his most recent book (co-authored with Dan Slater), From Development to Democracy: the Transformations of Modern Asia (Princeton University Press, 2022), as well as from over two decades of research on the region, Professor Wong offers an optimistic take on the prospects of democracy in Asia; the imperative for autocratic regimes – such as the CCP in the China – to democratize sooner rather than later; and the leading role that Taiwan plays in illuminating the challenges but ultimately the promise of Asia’s democratic future.
