| description | Cross-strait relations encompass both political and security concerns and
serve as a specialized research topic. Scholars approach the issue from
various perspectives, and these analyses come not only from researchers in
the core countries involved—China and Taiwan—and the United States (US),
but also from experts worldwide. Research on cross-strait relations is rich in
both analysis and prediction, extending beyond East Asia into broader
international politics. What are the current research trends in cross-strait
relations? Who studies them, and do scholars from certain countries bring
unique topics or viewpoints? This study maps research on cross-strait relations
using the Web of Science (WoS) database to identify and compare the
dominant topics, scholars, and countries of affiliation. Through text, network,
and sentiment analysis of bibliographic data, this study finds that cross-strait
studies are not limited to the relations between Taiwan and China alone.
Furthermore, the prevalence of Taiwanese scholars in this field suggests that
much of the discourse reflects Taiwan’s perspective on cross-strait issues. |
