Despite initial culinary diplomacy campaigns that conflated Chinese culture with Taiwanese identity, recent government campaigns have begun to highlight the distinctiveness of Taiwanese cuisine. Considering the role that Taiwanese food has played in bringing tourists to Taiwan and the potential it has to illustrate Taiwan’s complex cultural history, future government campaigns should take care to work together with decentralized efforts—especially within Taiwanese American communities—to promote Taiwanese cuisine.

In "The Effect of COVID Policies on Presidential Evaluations: Evidence from Taiwan," Dr. Timothy S. Rich examines how public perceptions of COVID-19 policies impacted the views of Taiwanese voters toward the administration of President Tsai Ing-wen. He uses multiple sources of polling data from 2020-2022, as well as an original survey conducted late in the pandemic (September 2022), to perform a detailed analysis of the views of Taiwan’s citizens toward the government’s COVID-19 response measures, and how these views correspond to other aspects of political identification and opinion.
