SUMMARY:Superwahljahr 2024: What to Watch in Taiwan’s Upcoming Election
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]On January 13\, 2024\, Taiwan’s voters will go to the polls to elect a successor to President Tsai Ing-wen\, who is term-limited. Who will succeed her as three parties jockey for support? Some analysts believe the election will be a referendum on relations with China\, but others think domestic issues (like housing and wages) will be top of mind. What issues will inform Taiwan’s political debate? \nThe election is being watched closely as it will likely impact relations between Taiwan and China as well as Taiwan’s broader role in the world. Join the American Council on Germany for a discussion with ACG Board member and Young Leader alumna Tara Hariharan\, who just returned from a two-week study tour to Taiwan and serves as Managing Director of Global Macro Research at NWI Management LP\, and Dr. Gudrun Wacker\, Senior Fellow in the Asia Division of the German Institute for International Security Affairs (Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik\, SWP). \nThis will be the first in a series of events organized by the ACG under the heading Superwahljahr 2024. Starting with Taiwan in January and running through the U.S. presidential election in November\, national elections will be held in more than 50 countries and some 3.9 billion people (or 49% of the world population) will be eligible to vote.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F4517047332203%2FWN_a81uPSAPS_-KNSrH5T-hCA” css=”.vc_custom_1704733263871{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Tara Hariharan (ACG Board Member and 2016 Young Leader) is Managing Director of Global Macro Research at NWI Management LP\, a New York-based global macro hedge fund with an emphasis on emerging markets.
