臺灣某些政策作為或訴求，雖然嚴重違背了中共政權的重要國家利益，然而，卻難見中共能夠運用國家權力有效克制臺灣。也就是說，他們難以降低此一議題的敏感性與脆弱性。兩岸之間的互動關係，從某些事實觀察，臺灣並非全然處於權力劣勢的依賴性質。從互賴理論所提出的「敏感性與脆弱性」概念來看，是否可以作為一種適當的分析工具，以解釋兩岸互動的關係？本文擬探討互賴理論究竟能有多少解釋力，而以敏感性與脆弱性作為分析工具的概念，是否具有普遍性的意義與適用性，以及形成若干分析的具體指標。

After observing the actual interactive relationship on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, we understood that Taiwan is not necessarily in an inferior position. The famous concept of “sensitivity” and “vulnerability” is borrowed from the Interdependence Theory. This research uses these two concepts to analyze the power relationship between Taiwan and the Mainland China. Moreover, the research needs to validate the theory to find out if it is an applicable tool of analysis in order to explain the interaction of power. This research will probe into the explanatory ability of the Interdependence Theory. Furthermore, we will seek to understand the analytic instrument of sensitivity and vulnerability's generality, application and concrete index. Some of the policies and appeals in Taiwan seriously violated the Chinese national interest, but the Chinese didn't have effective tricks to restrain Taiwan. That is to say, in China it is difficult to reduce the sensitivity and vulnerability, while Taiwan changes their policies easily in order to win more favorable conditions.
