The third and fourth chapters look at the policies of Chen Yi, the governor of Taiwan at that time. Against the background of post-war reconstruction, a deep exposition is made of the beginnings of the February 28 Incident and a new assessment is made of Chen Yi that is very different to the commonly held view.
三、四兩章則分析陳儀的為人為政與治法政策，深中肯棨地論述了在中國戰後重建的歷史背景下，「二二八」事件的肇因，並予陳儀不同乎流俗的公正評價。
