The academic seminar is organized as part of the #TaiwanStudiesAtUW project and will be devoted to the presentation of research by three speakers.
Weronika Jakubczak (Fire Service Academy), in collaboration with the Faculty of Political Science and International Studies, University of Warsaw, will present the results of her research entitled Strategic assumptions of the People’s Republic of China shaping economic security and cybersecurity of third states in the era of hybrid conflicts, analyzing the impact of the PRC’s strategic assumptions on the economic security and cybersecurity of other states.
Yinn-Ching LU (Law Faculty, Emory University) in the paper “Justices Matter: A Theory of Judicial Resilience”, based on quantitative analysis and case studies of Poland, Georgia, and Taiwan, will demonstrate that a diverse composition of supreme courts strengthens their resilience, and multi-actor nomination mechanisms promote this diversity, although even the best-designed procedures do not guarantee full independence in the face of strong political pressure.
Wei-Ting LI (Department of Education, National Sun Yat-sen University) will present a reflection on the relationship between science as a method of cognition and nature as the order of the world, indicating, through an experience simulating the research process, that knowledge requires constant revision, and scientific classifications are not free from cultural contexts and values.
