Confronting a Nuanced Past: Mapping Chiang Kai-shek’s Legacy
公开可下载的内容
open in viewerHow should nations worldwide portray controversial historical figures from their past? Chiang Kai-shek is Taiwan’s most polarizing historical figure, with an intense political discourse surrounding his legacy in Taiwanese history. Was he a nationalist hero and modernizer or a brutal authoritarian? In collaboration with Dr. Fu-Sheng Shih, a Professor of Sociology at Soochow University in Taipei, Taiwan, we developed an online tourist route that takes visitors to historically and culturally significant locations relating to Chiang Kai-shek around Taipei. Upon completing the route, tourists can come to their own conclusions about Chiang Kai-shek’s legacy and gain further insight into the portrayal and memory of complex historical figures worldwide.
