Supplemental: Development and Diplomacy

In the Global Vanguard: Agrarian Development and the Making of Modern Taiwan, James Lin, 2025.

There are a bunch of interesting visuals inside In the Global Vanguard, photographs most especially. Here I have selected what I found most interesting: the key chart depicting Taiwan’s agrarian miracle, a fantastic historic map of Operation Vanguard’s African missions, the diagram by Chen Sun I mentioned in the review, and, of course, the photograph from the “Straw Hat Diplomats” article. Enjoy!
