In terms of Cross-Strait Relationship, some conflict situations had hampered bilateral cooperative relations and this ''stop'', even backward, phase may last for a while, yet another ''go'' phase will emerge and promote a new wave of cooperation and exchange. These ''thesis, anti-thesis, synthesis'' dialectical features have raised academic concerns and incurred the debates about the applicability of this prototype. Furthermore, if we look back the Cross-Strait relation since 1949, how can we be sure that the evolutionary path has followed the prediction of dialectical functionalism? The controversies of Cross-Strait Trade Service Agreement resulted in the stagnation of bilateral relations development. Would this situation stimulate an opportunity for a new wave of cooperation between two sides? This paper first focuses on the theory of dialectical functionalism, and tries to clarify its main arguments and the analytical concepts; then analyzes the controversies of Trade Service Agreement and the possible impacts on the bilateral relations between Taiwan and Mainland China. Whether or not this situation would be inclined to positive developments remains to be seen. |
