228 and Transitional Justice in Taiwan
February 28 is Peace Memorial Day in Taiwan in memory of the Feb. 28 (or 228) Incident of 1947 and the White Terror period that followed. 77 years later, Taiwan is dealing with its past through a process of transitional justice, but some feel progress has been too slow. We #CONNECTED with Chia-Shin Hsu, research professor at Academia Sinica’s Institute of Law, and David Roman, professor at Lingnan University in Hong Kong, to examine Taiwan’s implementation of transitional justice to right the wrongs of its authoritarian past.
