Taiwanese Development Model
According to Thomas Gold Taiwan offers a text book case of an
elite-led revolution leading to social transformation. The stability
of hard authoritarianism of the Taiwanese government laid the
groundwork for Taiwanese development. The KMTs cohesiveness and
political domination plus the economic development aid supplied by the
United States also helped to provide good conditions for Taiwanese
growth in the beginning. ... The
growth of the Taiwanese economy during this period according to Gold
laid the ground work for the growth of opposition movements and
loosening of the KMT"S grip on power. According to Gold this was
because the changes in the Taiwanese economy brought about a middle
class, a better educated populace, and a dispersion of industry
through out the country. ... This is because many of the
factors that allowed Taiwanese industrialization were unique to
Taiwan.
