The Kaohsiung Incident of 1979-1980 disturbed Taiwan s dictatorship and ultimately contributed to Taiwan s democratization. This book analyzes the precursors to the Kaohsiung Incident, the Kaohsiung Incident itself, the following trials and the contributions of these events to Taiwan s democratization. After the indictments were issued, the murder of the mother and twin daughters of Lin I-hsiung, one of the defendants, shocked Taiwan and the world. The government accused the author, a well-known scholar of Taiwan, of being involved in the murder case and he was placed under police protection for three months. Part 2 of this book is the writer s memoir of that period."
