摘要

主權概念變遷源自數百年來政治環境之轉型。傳統上，主權國家的構成要件包括人民、領土、管轄權與國防能力。時至今日，主權國家所面臨的桃戰，不惟來自內部也來自外部，而其對領土完整的強力主張，也相對地加劇了國家自身的威脅。隨著資訊的普及與國家間互動頻繁，國家的本質亦隨之改變。過去強調以武力維護領土與管轄權完整的方式，已被國際社會視為不恰當甚至不合法。關於臺海兩岸的主權爭議，其實自 1949 年兩岸分離分治後已不具實質意義。中共若意圖以戰爭解決領土主權問題，最終恐將演變成臺灣追求獨立的戰爭。

The Transformations of contending concepts of sovereignty have been originated from a transition of international political environment in the past few hundred years. Traditionally, a state is seen as a human community that successfully claims its legitimate sovereignty within a given territory. And a sovereign state contains populations, territory, jurisdiction and the capability of national defense. Nowadays, challenges come not just between territories but within territories as well, the more vigorously the state asserts its territorial integrity and identity, the more manifest is the challenge from within and without. This is simply because goods and information across their territories and interdependence among states are changing the nature of states. Forces that were seen valid for the protection of state's jurisdiction and territorial integrity have been regarded as invalid and even illegal. Using military force against its people or others, for whatever reasons, violates social contract by treating people as a mere object. Which obviously destroys the relationship between rulers and ruled and undermines the legitimacy of the administrator and the society as well. An international intervention may thus be incurred.
As for Taiwan (ROC), its connection with Mainland China nowadays has nothing to do with sovereignty itself ever since their separation in 1949. However, the major driving force, the myth of imagined communities, has become the only excuse for PRC's military invasion into Taiwan. In so doing, a war that is to be claimed as keeping territorial integrity for China will turn out to be a solemn war for Taiwan's independence.
