Michelle Kuo (’09), Visiting Professor at National Taiwan University, contributed an opinion to The Guardian discussing Taiwan’s re-election of the Democratic Progressive party (DPP) as a mark of intergenerational support for the democratic process despite political divide along generational lines, and steps the party may take to address concerns of young voters (“Taiwan’s Election Result Is a Triumph for Democracy – and a Thorn in Beijing’s Side,” Jan. 14). “There are reservations about the victorious DPP, but the result – and the peaceful nature of the elections – is a sign of hope in a world gone mad. . . . [T]oday, the DPP, which originated as a social movement against martial law (the movement’s name, dangwai, literally translates to ‘outside the party’), is now entering its third consecutive term. It is an establishment party with a radical history. . . . [I]t must craft an agenda that appears fresh and meaningful, while continuing to battle China’s cognitive and economic warfare.”
