Dissertation DISSERTATION Titel der Dissertation „Governance, Empowerment, and Environmental Justice – the Indigenous Tao of Orchid Island“ Verfasserin Mag.a Rosa Enn angestrebter akademischer Grad Doktorin der Philosophie (Dr. phil.) Wien, 2015 Studienkennzahl A 784 307 lt. Studienblatt: Dissertationsgebiet Dr. Studium der Sozialwissenschaften, lt. Studienblatt: Kultur- und Sozialanthropologie Betreuerin / Betreuer: Mag. Dr. Hermann Mückler ao. Univ.-Prof. 2 Acknowledgments I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to my informants and friends in Taiwan and Orchid Island. In particular I would like to thank my Tao family Lumai, Pace, Syaman Mifilang, Yaohsin, Ina, Zhang Haiyu, Dong Enzi, and Guo Jianping, for all their support and hospitality. Ina gave me the Tao name Si Togoren, meaning “although we come from different parts of the world our souls are connected”. I can very much identify with this name. Meeting my Tao family was a lucky coincidence that has developed into something of great high value, not only for my research, but also for personal reasons as our friendship has become strong and sincere and keeps me coming back to Orchid Island. Furthermore, I would like to thank my supervisor and professor Hermann Mückler from the Social and Cultural Anthropology department of the University of Vienna. He has always supported my undertakings and research projects and kept me motivated when I got lost in the course of writing my dissertation. In addition, I thank Dr. Astrid Lipinsky, my dear professor from the Sinology Department at the University of Vienna. Her engagement and enthusiasm had a great influence on my academic career. Dr. Lipinsky invited me to contribute to several workshops, conferences, and miscellanies with articles developed from my research. I am convinced that we will have many more interesting opportunities to work together in the future. I would like express my sincere appreciation to my Taiwanese professors, Huang Shu-min, Awi Mona, Sasala Taiban, and Peter Chang. All of them shared their expertise regarding indigenous issues, governance, and life in Taiwan with me and have been of great value in terms of expanding my knowledge as well as supporting my dissertation. Peter Chang in particular has been very supportive of my research and he is one of the initiators of the National Health Research Institute research project being launched on Orchid Island to find out whether radioactive contamination pollutes the environment and if the worrying health situation among the Tao people is connected with the nuclear waste repository. I am very glad that such a survey is going to be undertaken thanks to Professor Chang’s efforts and his dedication to the most vulnerable. In the course of my doctoral studies I was fortunate to obtain a Research Fellowship offered by the Taiwanese Ministry for Foreign Affairs, Center for Chinese Studies, and the Taiwanese National Central Library in order to conduct seven months of field research in Taiwan. The Ethnology Department of Academia Sinica was my affiliated institution through several field stays and Director Huang Shu-min kindly supported me in realizing my undertakings. I also obtained the Marietta Blau Scholarship from the Austrian Agency for International Cooperation in Education and Research (OeAD) and this funded ten months of field research in Taiwan. From the University of Vienna, I obtained various smaller grants for my doctoral studies. I am very thankful for the opportunity to undertake fieldwork and complete my project with the financial support of these parties. 3 Last but not least, I would like to express my deep gratitude to my family and all my dear friends in Taiwan, Austria, Switzerland, and around the world for their love, patience, motivation, inspiration, and encouragement. Certainly, without them, my way would not have been the same great adventure. 我想在這裡向我的台灣和蘭嶼朋友們表達由衷的感謝。特別是來自 Tao 家的 Lumai, Pace, Syaman Mifilang, Yaohsin, Ina, Zhang Haiyu, Dong Enzi, and Guo Jianping, 謝謝你 們一直以來的支持和無微不至的照顧。Ina 幫我取了一個很有意義並且適合我名字 Si Togoren,代表著“即使來自世界不同的角落,我們的心依舊緊緊相連”。我覺得自己很 幸運,能夠遇到 Tao family。他們賦予了我的人生更高的價值,不僅僅是因為他們幫 助我完成了我的調研,更是因為這份珍貴的友誼本身。感恩上天,讓我們有緣相遇相 知。即使 我現在並不在台灣,我也能深刻的感受到這份強烈且真誠的牽掛,催促著我 再次回到這個美麗的地方。 最後,我想再次表達我對所有朋友們發自內心的感謝,不管你 們是在台灣也好還是在 奧地利或者瑞士,謝謝你們一直以來給我的愛,包容,支持和鼓勵。缺少了任何一部 分,我的人生之旅都不會像如今這樣完美。 4 Contents

  • Island of Memories Postcolonial Historiography and Public Discourse in Contemporary Taiwan
    Island of Memories Postcolonial Historiography and Public Discourse in Contemporary Taiwan Lung-chih Chang HCM 2 (3): 229–244 DOI: 10.1557/HCM2014.3.CHAN Abstract The re-discovery of Taiwanese history along with both official and local initiatives of cultural heritage and public commemorations constitutes an important postcolonial cultural phenomenon. This paper discusses the “memory boom” in post-martial law Taiwan and examines its implications in our understanding of history, culture, and modernity in East Asian context. The major arguments of this paper can be summarised in three parts. The first section introduces the emergence of new academic and public discourses in Taiwan in the post-martial law era. The second and main section offers four major examples of postcolonial historiography and public discourse including national commemoration, ethnic revival, the heritage movement and Taiwa- nese wartime experience. The final section further illustrates the features of Taiwan’s postcolonial historiography in terms of history and memory with topical discussions on the rethinking of the modernity question and the reinterpretation of Japanese colonial heritage. Keywords: Taiwanese historiography, public history, memory, heritage, identity Introduction For a first-time visitor to Taiwan, an alternative to the must-see Taipei 101 tower or the trendy National Palace Museum is the nostalgic 228 Peace Memorial Park. The park is located in downtown Taipei right beside the ROC presidential palace, formerly the Japanese Taiwan Government-Gen- eral Building. Founded as Taipei New Park in 1908 by the Japanese, the park was renamed as 228 Peace Memorial Park in 1996 by the then city VOL. 2, NO.

Clarke [email protected] Ashbel Smith Professor, School of Economic, Political, and Policy Sciences, University of Texas at Dallas Introduction In East Asia, 2014 was an epochal year for transformation of social, economic and political orders. Students in Taiwan and Hong Kong each led a large scale social movement in 2014 that not only caught international attention, but also profoundly influenced domestic politics afterwards. According to literature of political socialization, it is widely assumed that the occurrences of such a huge event will produce period effects which bring socio-political attitudinal changes for all citizens, or at least, cohort effects, which affect political views for a group of people who has experienced the event in its formative years. While existing studies have accumulated fruitful knowledge in the socio-political structure of the student-led movement, the profiles of the supporters in each movement, as well as the causes and consequences of the student demonstrations in the elections (Ho, 2015; Hawang, 2016; Hsiao and Wan, 2017; Stan, forthcoming; Ho et al., forthcoming), relatively few studies pay attention to the link between democratic legitimacy and student activism.

The Nationalist Party first defined the Incident as a rebellion by pro-Japanese forces and communist saboteurs. As the enemy of the Nationalist Party in China’s Civil War (1946-1949), the Chinese Communist Party initially interpreted the Incident as a Taiwanese fight for political autonomy in the party’s wartime propaganda, and then reinterpreted the event as an anti-Nationalist uprising under its own leadership.

The Taiwan HSR is used for this empirical study. Research methods include descriptive statistics, multilevel analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Findings conclude that HSR-based towns, on average, may experience growing population and employment, but HSR-based counties are likely to experience relatively less growth of employment in the tertiary sector. HSR stations located in urban or suburban settings may have a more significant spatial impact.

  • Taipei and Seoul's Modern Urbanization Under
    sustainability Article Taipei and Seoul’s Modern Urbanization under Japanese Colonial Rule: A Comparative Study from the Present-Day Context Yeonkyung Lee Institute of Convergence Research Institute of Regional Humanities and Information, Incheon National University, Incheon 21999, Korea; [email protected]; Tel.: +82-10-5019-5372 Received: 29 April 2020; Accepted: 7 June 2020; Published: 11 June 2020 Abstract: Both Taipei and Seoul underwent a process of colonization and modern urbanization during the early part of the 20th century, under Japanese rule. In both countries, urban-planning projects from the colonial period have had a great impact on recent urban changes. This comparative analysis aims to identify the characteristics of modern cities with Japanese colonial histories, focusing on the following three aspects: (1) Urban structure based on spatial distribution by ethnic group; (2) Japanese colonial urban planning; and (3) modern boulevards that convey the power and spectacle of a colonial city. Taipei and Seoul have multi-cores because the Japanese and Taiwanese/Korean areas were not clearly separated spatially. Secondly, Japanese colonial urban planning was influenced by Japanese settlements and government facilities. Thirdly, the main boulevards in each city, created through modern urban planning, combine modern streetscapes with imperial spectacle. These boulevards took on an important political meaning after liberation. Comparative studies of Taipei and Seoul can illuminate the difference between modern cities with a Japanese colonial history and colonial cities under European rule. Such comparisons make it possible to analyze the meaning, value, and relevance of colonial remnants, including urban structure and artifacts, for each city’s sustainable future.
