Taiwan Straight IV: how an ultimate political settlement might look Forced Migration Online (24276783) Migration, asylum and refugee law FORCED MIGRATION ONLINE REGIONAL SECURITY CONFLICT CENTRAL GOVERNMENT SOVEREIGNTY REINTEGRATION FOREIGN POLICY POLITICAL CHANGE This report analyzes possible political settlements for resolving conflict across the Taiwan Strait, focusing on what it would take to produce a longer term solution that both sides could accept. Four different reunification or reintegration models are considered: China's preferred 'one country, two systems' federal model; an asymmetric 'federacy' linking an autonomous entity to a larger state; a 'confederation' yoking China and Taiwan as sovereign equals in a state that retained full reunification as its ultimate goal; and the idea of a 'Greater Chinese Union', somewhere between a confederation and the 'thinnest' possible federation. 2026-09-30T11:49:00Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33354456.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Taiwan_Straight_IV_how_an_ultimate_political_settlement_might_look/33354456 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
