    No full text
    Chiang Ching-kuo (1910-1988) is an essential figure to understand the contemporary Chinese world. This article examines the most important chapters of his life, from his experience in the Soviet Union until his presidency in Taiwan during the 1970s and 1980s. Chiang Ching-kuo’s vital trajectory allows us to study the complexities behind the particular Chinese modernization project that materialised in the island as a result of the combination of both exogenous and endogenous elements and a degree of contingency that was not expected by the political elite of the Kuomintang. This work seeks to contribute to the development of the Chinese and Taiwanese studies in Spanish. It advances the concept of “Chinese short century” and opens up new avenues for future research that seek to cast into doubt the dominant discourse around the “Taiwanese miracle”.Chiang Ching-kuo (1910-1988) es una figura imprescindible en la comprensión del Mundo Chino contemporáneo. El presente artículo propone una aproximación a través de los capítulos más importantes de su vida, desde su experiencia en la Unión Soviética hasta su presidencia de Taiwán durante la década de los años setenta y ochenta. La trayectoria vital de Chiang Ching-kuo permite asomarse al complejo nudo de relaciones existentes detrás del especifico proyecto modernizador chino que se cristalizó en la isla debido a una combinación de elementos exógenos y endógenos con un grado de contingencia no prevista por la élite política del Kuomintang. Este trabajo, que busca contribuir al desarrollo de los estudios chinos y taiwaneses en español, propone el concepto de “un corto siglo chino” y sugiere nuevas líneas de investigación conducentes a cuestionar el discurso dominante sobre el “milagro taiwanés”
