Abstract
Nowa polityka wobec Azji Południowo-Wschodniej i Antypodów jest kluczową kwestią w programie politycznym prezydent Republiki Chińskiej Tsai Ing-wen. Celem tego rozdziału jest zbadanie poprzez analizę ilościową, zawartości światowych i azjatyckich środków masowego i ich przekazów na temat nowej polityki wobec Azji Południowo-Wschodniej i Antypodów. Proces badawczy obejmował 23 strony internetowe gazet, czasopism, stacji radiowej (Voice of Vietnam) i kanału telewizyjnego (CNA). Zidentyfikowano dwieście osiem jednostek badawczych traktujących o Nowej Polityce, której istotą jest zmniejszenie zależności gospodarczej od Chin kontynentalnych i zwiększenie międzynarodowej obecności Tajwanu w regionie Azji Południowo-Wschodniej i Południowej oraz Antypodów. Wymowa analizowanych treści poświęconych nowej polityce ukazuje Tajwan w pozytywnym kontekście jako rozwiniętą demokrację i odpowiedzialnego członka społeczności międzynarodowej, który angażuje się w problemy globalne, takich jak Cele Zrównoważonego Rozwoju ONZ czy Ramowa Konwencja Klimatyczna ONZ. (abstrakt oryginalny)

The New Southbound Policy (NSP) is the key issue in the economic policy agenda of Tsai Ing-wen, the President of the Republic of China. The aim of the article is to examine through the quantitative analysis the content of Western media as well as a group of Asian media outlets about the NSP in order to depict the NSP's image. Twenty-three websites of newspapers, magazines, radio (Voice of Vietnam) and television (CNA) channels have been under the research process. There are two hundred five research units which were identified as news features concerning the New Southbound Policy. Generally, the idea of New Southbound Policy is simultaneously drawn in the media outlets' content as an economic and political agenda. The NSP was introduced both to reduce the economic dependence from China and to raise Taiwan's international visibility in the Southeast and South Asia region. In such media content, Taiwan has usually been shaped in a positive way as a vibrant democracy and responsible member of international community complying with the important global issues, such as the UN Sustainable Development Goal, e.g., the UN Climate Framework Convention. Eventually, the New Southbound Policy is being framed as a positive concept that shapes attractive Taiwan's image. (original abstract)
