When Chen Shui-bian, Taiwan's first non-Kuomintang president, left office in 2008, his tenure was widely considered a disappointment. More recent events, however, suggest the need for a reassessment of this crucial period in Taiwan's political development. This title provides that assessment, considering key facets of both the progress toward and the obstacles to democratic consolidation.
