Abstract
In 1987, Taiwan government opened up the policy for people visiting their relatives in mainland China, and this act is taken as a milestone of cross-straits communication. Twenty years later, both the ruling party and the opposition advocate the policy of mainlander-touring-Taiwan. We couldn’t help but wonder what is going to happen between both straits. Is it inclined to “untie the knot which restrain both sides” interpreted by Chang-Ting Hsieh, the presidential candidate of DPP or to “bring new power into the economy” presented by Ying-Jeou Ma, the presidential candidate of KMT? All the above are considerably worthy to further research.
Qualitative method is conducted to probe into the backgrounds of both straits’ government policy decisions on the basis of individual benefits. It is revealed that the economic factor is not the only cause of this policy. Since Taiwan is not included in Approved Destination Status (ADS) for people from PRC presently, we still need to refine “Mainlander-Touring Taiwan Regulation” to avoid possible violation of people’s right and system defects.
“Game Theory” and” Two-Level Game Theory” are applied here to analyze the interactive negotiation strategies between both straits. It is discovered that whether in democratic or authoritative regime, domestic politics certainly affect its international acts. There are two mutually beneficial time points for both straits to open up the policy under rational hypothesis. Besides, mainland tourists are indeed profitable for the economy in Taiwan on the premise that the government and the related business enhance democratic system and brand core competence in the meanwhile; otherwise the subjectivity of Taiwan would be easily harmed.
