This paper analyzes Taiwanâs engagement with Somaliland through the lens of ontological security theory, arguing that de facto states pursue identity-affirming diplomacy beyond physical security needs. Using thematic narrative analysis, it examines how Taiwan constructs narratives of democracy, recognition, and international legitimacy.
The âtaken-for-grantedâ disappears
A look out of the window or at the screen reveals a world where our 'ontological security' is disappearing. Our very fundamental sense of being is being broken. Our sense of continuity of our lives is ruptured. Multiple crisis rock the sense of the self. All of a sudden we are all at the âfront-linesâ experiencing the polycrisis.
