Formosa: A Problem For United States Foreign Policy is a book written by Joseph William Ballantine, which focuses on the political and strategic importance of the island of Formosa (now known as Taiwan) in the context of United States foreign policy. The book provides a detailed historical account of the island's relationship with the United States, dating back to the late 19th century, and examines the various challenges and opportunities that have arisen in this relationship over time.The author argues that Formosa has long been a crucial strategic location for the United States, particularly in its efforts to contain the spread of communism in East Asia. He discusses the various ways in which the United States has sought to maintain its influence over the island, including through military alliances, economic aid, and diplomatic pressure.The book also explores the complex political dynamics of Formosa itself, including the tensions between the island's ethnic Chinese population and the ruling Kuomintang government, as well as the challenges posed by the growing influence of the People's Republic of China.Overall, Formosa: A Problem For United States Foreign Policy provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the historical and contemporary issues surrounding the relationship between the United States and Taiwan, and offers valuable insights into the broader challenges facing U.S. foreign policy in the Asia-Pacific region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
