In this scheme of things, state’s rational choice becomes a fitting anaÂ�lytÂ�ical tool to explain the changing pattern of interÂ�action between TaiÂ�wanese businesses and the Chinese government. Although rational choice is a logical and sysÂ�tematic way of analysing social or politÂ�ical changes by modelling social situÂ�ations,74 it may be protested that rational choice does not provide the conclusive explanation for the change in the interÂ�action between TaiÂ�wanese businesses and the Chinese govÂ�ernÂ�ment.

Moreover, local govÂ�ernÂ�ments are imÂ�portÂ�ant partners for the central govÂ�ernÂ�ment in its foreign relation polÂ�icy.
