摘要:	For all the interest that the decades-long standoff across the Taiwan Strait has generated in the American academic and policy literature, relatively little attention has been devoted to tracing the origins of the deadlock between Taipei and Beijing. Standard accounts of this deadlock in the West tend to accept as given and historically grounded the strong nationalist feelings on both sides of the Strait about competing visions for Taiwan’s future. This paper challenges this view and argues that the hegemonic perception of Taiwan in the PRC as “part of the sacred territory” of China, as the Preamble to its 1982 Constitution puts it, is a strategic social construction which coincided with Taiwan’s exacerbated geostrategic value following the intensification of the Cold War in East Asia after the Korean War. Seeking to prevent the establishment of a separate state on Taiwan, promoted by Washington as part of the American containment strategy in East Asia, the PRC government, through repeated propaganda campaigns, sought to mobilize the nationalist masses and imprint in the collective conscience of the Chinese nation the idea that “Taiwan is China’s sacred and inviolable territory” as a way to enhance the credibility of its deterrent threat against Taiwanese independence.
