| Abstract | The author of Les Austronesiens de Taiwan a travers les sources chinoises (The Austronesians in Taiwan as seen through Chinese sources), Chantal Zheng, has put her finger on the historical question traditionally considered to be the most sensitive in Taiwan, and which has reappeared today as a current issue : the origins of the island and its relations with mainland China throughout the centuries, The island of Taiwan is, of course, a land which is culturally Chinese, but the specific culture and identity of the island cannot be denied, and this debate has many political and diplomatic repercussions. |
