The March 1996 crisis in the Taiwan Strait was caused essentially by the internal dynamics of Taiwan's unprecedentedly thorough democratization process since the early 1990s, which had not only led to a rapid localization of the political scene, but has also resulted in a new upsurge of Taiwanese consciousness and separatist inclinations. The increasingly fierce competition between the ruling party, the Kuomintang, and its principal challenger, the Democratic Progressive Party, had further compelled the former to emulate the latter's posture and policies, thereby inevitably alarming and antagonizing Beijing. Unless President Lee Teng-hui, during his new term, convinces Beijing that Taiwan's democratization and Taiwanization processes will not lead to political independence, and at the same time also persuade the Taiwanese people that upholding the one-China principle will not necessarily result in reunification, tension might again rise across the Taiwan Strait.
