- Summary:
- In 1979 the United States Congress passed the Taiwan Relations Act (TRA), which reaffirmed US commitment to Taiwan. Lee examines the making of the TRA both as a classic tug of war between the Executive and Legislative branches that characterizes the American political system, and as a paradigm of forward-looking policy making.
