\textbf{Finding Your Dao}
**Finding Your Dao**

As we discuss in the book, linear book narratives have a significant disadvantage of forcing every reader down a single learning path. While the online version avoids this through the extensive use of hyperlinks, those who hold a physical copy will find this more challenging to navigate. To partially alleviate this problem, we have structured the text in a "circular" manner, where readers can start at a variety of points, read from there and circle back to the "earlier" material at the end.

We recommend in particular that:

- Those with a primarily topical, political or \textbf{current affairs} interest begin at the beginning of the book, with the preface and read straight through.
- Those with a primarily topical, political or **current affairs** interest begin at the beginning of the book, with the preface and read straight through.

- Those with a more conceptual, theoretical or broadly \textbf{intellectual} interest consider skipping Parts 1 and 2 and beginning in Part 3
- Those with a more conceptual, theoretical or broadly **intellectual** interest consider skipping Parts 1 and 2 and beginning in Part 3.

- Those with a more \textbf{technical}, technological or engineering focus consider beginning with Part 4
- Those with a more **technical**, technological or engineering focus consider beginning with Part 4.

- Those with an interest in concrete technologies and their \textbf{applications} consider beginning with Part 5
- Those with an interest in concrete technologies and their **applications** consider beginning with Part 5.

- Those with an interest in real-world \textbf{impact} in specific social sectors consider beginning with Part 6
- Those with an interest in real-world **impact** in specific social sectors consider beginning with Part 6.

- Those with a focus on public \textbf{policy}, government and social mobilization consider beginning with Part 7
- Those with a focus on public **policy**, government and social mobilization consider beginning with Part 7.

Regardless of stating point, we expect most readers who find value wherever they begin will find it worthwhile to continue reading, looping back and filling in the theoretical frameworks of "later" parts of the book with the the material that comes earlier.

Yet despite this deep and persistent division that fueled the Sunflower movement, the overlapping consensus between these perspectives is striking:

1. Pluralism: Both the Blue and Green stories share a strong emphasis on pluralism. For Blue, it includes the multiethnic nature of the ROC, while Greens focus on the diverse influences on Taiwan, including indigenous, Japanese, Taigi, Hakka, Western and new immigrants.
1. Pluralism: Both the Blue and Green stories share a strong emphasis on pluralism. For Blue, it's about fusing both contemporary and traditional culture (exemplified by the National Palace Museum), while highlighting ROC's role as a cultural inheritor and leader; while the Greens focus on the diversity of those who have settled in Taiwan, including the indigenous peoples, Japanese, Hokkien, Hakka, Westerners, and new immigrants.
2. Diplomatic nuance: To navigate the challenging relationship with the PRC, both have had to embrace range of complex and nuanced public positions around the security posture of the US and other allies, the meaning of ROC and Taiwan, as well as the concept of "independence".
3. Democratic freedom: The ideas of "democracy" and "freedom" are core to both ideologies. For Greens, these ideas are the core of Taiwan's rallying cries overcoming both the White Terror and PRC authoritarianism. To Blues, these ideas are core to Tridemism and thus, in their eyes, qualities that a ROC leadership must focus on.
4. Anti-authoritarianism: Both are deeply concerned about growing authoritarianism in the PRC, especially in the last decade with the failure of the "One Country, Two Systems" formula in Hong Kong.

Banks themselves needed to consider how to transfer money internationally and in 1973 they came together to form, Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) a co-operative they all own and manage. Swift doesn't actually move money it acts as a carrier of the "messages containing the payment instructions between financial institutions involved in a transaction". [^Swift]. By 2018 messages about half of all high-value cross-border payments went through its network. [^Swift2]

**找到你的道路**

正如我們在書中所討論的,線性的書籍敘事有個顯著的缺點,就是強迫每個讀者走上單一的學習道路。雖然本書的線上版本通過大量使用超連結來避免這個問題,但實體版比較不容易為讀者導航。為了部分緩解這個問題,我們以「循環」的方式構建文本,讀者可以從各種起點開始閱讀,之後再回到「更早」的材料。

我們特別建議:

- 主要對時事、政治或**時事**感興趣的讀者,從書的開頭、前言開始,然後一直讀下去。

- 對概念性、理論性或廣泛**知識**內容更感興趣的讀者,可以考慮跳過第 1 和第 2 部分,從第 3 部分開始。

- 更關注**技術**、科技或工程的讀者,可以考慮從第 4 部分開始。

- 對具體技術及其**應用**感興趣的人,可以考慮從第 5 部分開始。

- 對在特定社會領域中產生真實世界**影響**感興趣的人,可以考慮從第 6 部分開始。

- 那些專注於公共**政策**、政府和社會動員的人,可以考慮從第 7 部分開始。

無論起始點在哪裡,我們期望大多數在某處開始發現價值的讀者,會發現繼續閱讀是值得的,再循環回到書中「更晚」部分的理論框架,並用更早出現的材料來補足。

1. 多元主義:藍綠兩派的故事都相當強調多元主義。對藍營而言,這包括當代與傳統文化(例如故宮文物)的兼容並蓄,強調民國作為文化傳承者和領導者的角色;而綠營則關注以定居臺灣者為主體,所衍伸的自主發展路徑,包括原住民、日本人、福建人、客家人、西方人和新移民的多元脈絡。
2. 外交策略:為了處理好與中国之間充滿挑戰的關係,兩者都必須圍繞美國和其他盟國的安全態勢、中華民國與臺灣的含義以及「獨立」概念,採取一系列複雜而微妙的公開立場。
3. 民主自由:民主與自由,都是兩種意識形態的核心。對綠營而言,這些理念是臺灣戰勝白色恐怖和中国威權的核心號召。對藍營來說,這些理念是三民主義的核心,因此在他們看來,是民國領導層必須重視的品質。
4. 反對專制:兩者都對中国日益增長的專制主義深感憂慮,尤其是在過去十年中,隨著「一國兩制」方案在香港的失敗。
