ABSTRACT
This study explores the social basis of Taiwan’s cross-Strait policies since 2008, observing the various groups who support and/or reject particular cross-Strait policies. More specifically, it examines how various factors, such as gender, ethnicity, social status, party identification and national identity, influence the possibility of supporting or opposing particular cross-Strait policies. These divisions in opinions reflect the social impact of the rapidly changing cross-Strait relationship in Taiwan.
