Шаблон:Short description Chen Pi-Chao (Шаблон:Zh; c. 1937 – 25 March 2005) was a Taiwanese politician with the Democratic Progressive Party.[1][2]

Personal life and academic career

Chen was a member of the first entering class of Tunghai University, graduating in 1959.[3] He left Taiwan in 1961 to attend Wayne State University before going on to Princeton University, where he received a Ph.D. in politics in 1966 after completing a doctoral dissertation titled "The politics of population in Communist China: a case study of birth control policy, 1949-1965".[4][2] Thereafter he did fieldwork on the topic in mainland China and published several other works on the topic.[5] He naturalised as a U.S. citizen in 1973. He had two sons, David and Levi.[2]

In politics

As democracy reform took hold in Taiwan in the 1990s, Chen returned to Taiwan in order to take part in politics.[2] He renounced his U.S. citizenship in 1995.Шаблон:Citation needed

Thereafter, he served as a consultant to the Ministry of National Defense and a member of the National Security Council during the presidency of Lee Teng-hui, and then became Vice-Minister of Defense during the presidency of Chen Shui-bian.[1] Despite the fact that he was no longer a U.S. citizen by then, the fact that he had previously held U.S. citizenship made him a controversial choice for the position.[6] He retired from public life in 2002 due to poor health.[1]
