Description

What makes Taiwan such a crucial flashpoint in global politics? How has its historical journey shaped its current role on the world stage?

In this special 'War Studies Podcast Live' episode, Dr Charlie Laderman, Senior Lecturer in International History, talks with Professor Sulmaan Khan of Tufts University about his latest book, ‘The Struggle for Taiwan’.

From Taiwan’s significance during World War II and the Cairo Declaration of 1943, to the intricate dance of the US diplomacy during the Korean War and Nixon’s era, this conversation delves into how historical events continue to influence modern US-China relations. Professor Khan also explores Taiwan's path to democracy and how domestic American politics have shaped its status today.

This episode was recorded as part of a live event with the Centre for Grand Strategy at King’s College London and the Axon Johnson Institute for Statecraft and Diplomacy.
