Ethnic policies and politics are sensitively important in democracies 
 of different sizes. After the lift of the martial law in 1987, Taiwan has s
 een different waves of indigenous/aboriginal ethnicities. Small in numbers 
 though, the emphasis on ethnic equality has been listed as an essential age
 nda item on different political parties’ agenda for its symbolism. After se
 veral decades, how has the ethnic politics in Taiwan developed? \n
On the o
 ther hand, for a multi-ethnically complicated democracy like India, ethnic 
 politics has many different aspects. One example is India’s northeast - loc
 ated in a strategic region, surrounded by international borders, and histor
 ically mired in separatist and inter-ethnic conflicts – has recently seen n
 ew developments such as the rise of the Hindu nationalists and political ch
 allenges such as the CAA, creating inter-ethnic tensions. \n
Can democracie
 s of such differences like Taiwan and India find common grounds in the stud
 y of ethnic policies and politics, while recognizing the differences of ang
 les, aspects, and topics of research of ethnic policies? \n
The purpose of 
 this workshop is to enhance the mutual understanding between Taiwan and Ind
 ia in areas including ethnic policies in the democratic context of each. We
  hope through conversations like this, the academic/scientific communities 
 of Taiwan and India would have opportunities to better understand each othe
 r, as more academic interactions can generate more interesting perspectives
  in theory and/or in practice. \n
