WITNESSING THE WHITE TERROR IN TAIWAN:1990 TO 1992 (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Very little known in the West, the White Terror in Taiwan was the longest extreme dark period in world history. Lasting from 1949 to 1992, tens of thousands of innocent Taiwanese were imprisoned, exiled or executed without judicial safeguards or even trial. The author saw part of this period, and describes how it felt to live through it. Mr. Nardini saw the last two years of the White Terror, and how it impacted not only his life but also a nation. In Taiwan today, the White Terror is very much remembered. The Taiwanese people keep the memory of the White Terror period alive so that the memories of those who fought, suffered and died in the White Terror will never be forgotten.
