As an example, she cites the international background of the Sino-Japanese Peace Treaty. It was created in the shadow of the Korean War (1950-53) and the Cold War, when the ROC-consisting of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu-was regarded a buffer state between communist nations and America, Japan and other anti-communist states. "But such connections between world history and national history are not yet found in high-school textbooks."
她舉例，《中日和約》有其國際關係的背景，是在韓戰（1950-1953）及冷戰的基礎上，在台、澎、金、馬的中華民國最終才與日本訂約，我國也因此成為美、日等反共勢力與共產勢力之間的緩衝國，「但這樣的世界史與本國史的互動，卻未見於高中教科書。」
