Some of the problems encountered by the administration are traced to changes in the political system of Taiwan that took place during the presidency of Lee Teng-hui. The paper also deals with the new role of the president as chief executive and functioning of the legislative. Finally, the reaction of the major political parties to the changes in the political situation is explored. --Taiwan,domestic politics,divided government,political system,party system,Chen Shui-bian,Lee Teng-hui

(author's abstract)Der Beitrag beschreibt einige Entwicklungen der taiwanesischen Innenpolitik seit der Wahl von Chen Shui-bian zum Praesidenten der Republik China in Taiwan 1998. In einem ersten Schritt werden die Erfolge und Fehler der amtierenden Chen-Administration diskutiert. Anschliessend folgt eine Analyse ihrer politischen Strategie hinsichtlich der Konsequenzen einer geteilten Regierung. Die dabei auftretenden Schwierigkeiten gehen auf Veraenderungen im politischen System Taiwans waehrend der Praesidentschaft Lee Teng-hui zurueck. In einem dritten Schritt wird die neue Rolle des Praesidenten als Kopf der Exekutive und Legislative eroertert. Abschliessend untersucht der Autor die Reaktionen der groessten Parteien (Demokratische Fortschrittspartei, Kuomintang u.a.) auf die Veraenderungen der politischen Situation.
