dc.description This article analyses the relationship between the geographical context as a physical space and the historical narrative as an imagined space in the formation of Taiwanese national identity. Based on the theoretical proposal of constructivism, that emphasises the importance of identity in shaping the interests of the States, the article suggests that the geographical and historical conditions have enabled Taiwan to develop a different national identity from that of the Chinese. For this, the assumption is that the geographical context generates material conditions and social interactions, turning the territory into an “imagined” space. This immaterial space is, above all, the result of historical narratives. Thus, the elements that configure the Taiwanese identity affect the foreign policy of this State, particularly in the search for international recognition. The conclusion highlights how the case of Taiwan evidences the manner in which identity influences foreign policy. en-US
dc.description Este artículo analiza la relación entre el contexto geográfico como un espacio físico y la narrativa histórica como un espacio imaginado en la conformación de la identidad nacional taiwanesa. Basado en la propuesta teórica del constructivismo, que enfatiza la importancia de la identidad en la conformación de los intereses de los Estados, se propone que las condiciones geográficas e históricas de Taiwán han desarrollado una identidad nacional distinta y diferenciada de la identidad china. Para ello, se asume una visión que sugiere que el contexto geográfico no solo genera condiciones materiales, sino también posibilita una serie de interacciones sociales que convierten al territorio también en un espacio “imaginado”, el cual es el resultado de narrativas históricas. Así, los elementos que conforman la identidad taiwanesa inciden en la política exterior de este Estado, particularmente en el caso de la búsqueda el reconocimiento internacional. Como conclusión, se destaca la manera en que el caso de Taiwán evidencia la forma como la identidad influye en la política exterior. es-ES
