It is part of the 30th anniversary celebration of the College of Social Sciences (CSS), the CSS Refocusing Asia lecture series. Professor Gold\u2019s research focuses on many aspects of the societies of East Asia, primarily mainland China and Taiwan. Through this lecture, Professor Gold presents his current research interest in looking at society-led change in the state during Taiwan\u2019s march toward democracy.<\/p><p>Placing his current research in conversation with his earlier works that looked at development in Taiwan in the late 1970s and 1980s with a developmental state perspective, Professor Gold argued that the dynamics of the relationship between state and society have reversed since democratization, and the rise of society requires a new way of looking at the process of democratization. That is, we should see democratization as not limited to the political field but as part of transformations within and across many fields.<\/p><p>How did the society in Taiwan become empowered in the face of overwhelming state power in all fields? Based on Pierre Bourdieu\u2019s and Neil Fligstein\u2019s works, Prof. Gold applied field theory to study political change. To understand the effect of society on Taiwan\u2019s political institutions and the transition of power from a party-state under the Kuomintang, Professor Gold presented cases to illustrate the fragmentation of state power and the formation of social institutions. The dispersal of power into wider society was assisted by the trouble in maintaining the myth of retaking China as time and political realities progressed. Demographics would also influence this change as the youth grew up with different historical and social perceptions. Professor Gold concluded that the party-state could not solve mounting problems opening the political space for social initiative. He stated that things that are taken for granted are ever-changing, as agency is dispersed.<\/p><p>Professor Gold provided us with a comprehensive review of what happened in Taiwan over the past decades. In the open forum, significant interest was expressed in applying Professor Gold\u2019s theory to the upcoming January 2024 Taiwan presidential election, and the implication of his research on the political parties in today\u2019s Taiwan. Prof. Gold expressed his view that there is significant difficulty in transferring influence from one arena to another and that observers should pay close attention to changes in the rules of the game, and the restructuring of benefits.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-63d029f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"63d029f\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bf7681c\" data-id=\"bf7681c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f44b5c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f44b5c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nccu.edu.tw\/p\/405-1000-15925,c87.php?Lang=en\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/css.nccu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/From-left-to-right_-Director-of-IDAS-768x511.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-12846\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/css.nccu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/From-left-to-right_-Director-of-IDAS-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/css.nccu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/From-left-to-right_-Director-of-IDAS-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/css.nccu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/From-left-to-right_-Director-of-IDAS-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/css.nccu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/From-left-to-right_-Director-of-IDAS-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/css.nccu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/From-left-to-right_-Director-of-IDAS-2048x1363.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">From left to right: Director of IDAS, Dr. Chao-Chi Lin; Dean of the College of Social Science, Dr. Wan-Ying Yang; Professor of Sociology Emeritus at the University of California at Berkeley, Dr. Thomas Gold; Yushan Scholar at IDAS, Dr. Harry Harding; Chair of the Board at Center for Asia-Pacific Resilience and Innovation, Dr. Syaru Shirley Lin.
