This is unequivocally my book recommendation for 2024:
China Marches West by Peter Perdue.
Excellently written and about a truly epic (but oft overlooked) period of grand Qing expansionism & those it trampled under hoof…

Taiwan lawmakers brawl over bills that would 'damage democracy'
Lawmakers were aiming to stop three amendments that would make it more difficult for voters to oust elected officials who they see as unfit.
"If the KMT forcefully passes the amendments ... Taiwan's democratic self-checking and self-repairing mechanism will be gone, and it will also cause significant and irreversible damage to Taiwan's civil society and democratic system," the ruling party said."
