課程概述 |
The class is taught in English and will examine Taiwan’s economic development from about 1860 to the present. The course will be organized topically (and roughly chronologically). We will start by examining Taiwan’s important crops (tea, sugar and rice) and how these affected Taiwan’s economic development from roughly 1860-1970. Then we will briefly look at the development of Taiwan’s natural resources. Finally we will consider Taiwan’s rise as a manufacturing power. We will start with a look at Taiwan’s first labor-intensive manufactured export, woven hats, which were produced and exported in the pre-war era, but then mainly focus on Taiwan’s post-war export boom and its modern growth, particularly the electronics industry. There will be seven groups projects based on the readings listed below and a short individual project based on analyzing Taiwan's post-war economic statistics. |
課程目標 |
When you finish this course, you should have a much better idea how Taiwan rose from poverty to relative prosperity |
課程要求 |
No prerequisites. There will be a lot of statistics but no mathematical modeling. Students taking this course usually come from many different departments |
