Weaving and Identity of the Atayal in Wulai, Taiwan Weaving and Identity of the Atayal in Wulai, Taiwan By Mami Yoshimura A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Masters of Arts in Geography Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2007 © Mami Yoshimura, 2007 AUTHOR'S DECLARATION FOR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF A THESIS I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii ABSTRACT Using a feminist approach in a postcolonial setting, the interactions between weaving, identity, gender, tourism development, and post-colonial history are explored. This ethnographic research is focused on the indigenous female weavers in Wulai, Taiwan who have experienced both colonialism and tourism development. During Japan’s occupation, the Atayal – one of twelve indigenous groups in Taiwan – were forced to abandon their most important socio-cultural activities: facial tattooing, headhunting, and weaving. The Atayal lost most of their original textiles because many of them were taken to Japan. Today, these textiles are preserved in a few Japanese museums. Meanwhile, in Taiwan, the Atayal’s textiles are now reconstructed by the hands of some indigenous women in Wulai who weave primarily for museums. Others, on the other hand, weave for domestic tourists although they have little success in competition with less expensive Han Chinese' factory-made woven products. The reintroduction of weaving not only required the Atayal weavers to retrace their weaving history and to reconstruct and revive lost skills but also opened up a new opportunity to create new motifs with imported looms. The reintroduction of weaving has had multiple effects on the Atayal community. The meaning of weaving has changed from the representation of the Atayal women’s gender identity alone to the representation of the Atayal’s collective ethnic identity as a whole. Now the Atayal proudly claim their weaving culture as a part of their ethnic identity. It has become an ethnic symbol and a tourism product. However, the indigenous residents of Wulai are now barely involved directly with tourism business although symbols of their identity are used to promote tourism. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I thank all Atayal and other residents of Wulai. Particularly, I owe a debt of gratitude to Sa-yun for her great hospitality and friendship. Sa-yun patiently explained to me about her experiences with weaving, shared her life story with me for many days and nights, and even taught me the rudiments of weaving. Numerous other residents of Wulai extended great hospitality to me and offered me many conversations about their personal lives; I am indebted to them. I would also like to thank Alice Takewatan and Philip and Tammy Diller. They have inspired me with their intellectual energy and political commitment, and I have learned much from them. I would like to express my special thanks to Dr. Geoffrey Wall for his guidance throughout my research and careful editing of my thesis. His passion and commitment to research enhanced my intellectual growth. I wish to thank Dr. Jody Decker who has read and discussed my research ideas and offered much helpful advice that improved the research process. I am also grateful to Dr. Janet Chang, without whose help I would never have been able to gain access to the indigenous residents of Wulai. I also extend warm thanks to Dr. Chang's students, Penny Fang, Sally Weng, Yu-Hsin Liao who helped me during my fieldwork in Taiwan. Several scholars from Taiwan, Japan and Canada also deserve great thanks for providing me with their invaluable insights into my research. They include Dr. David Ma, Dr. Masaharu Kasahara, Dr. Katsuhiko Yamaji, Dr. Maoko Miyaoka, Dr. Scott Simon, Mr. Jenn-Yeu Yang, Mr. Tw-Wen Wei, Mr. Naoki Ishigaki, Mr. Taira Nakamura, and Ms. Yuka Sugino from the Tenri Art Museum. Many thanks are owed to my friends and colleagues, especially Teresa Tao, Jackie Dawson, Jennifer Robinson, Jin E Yu, and Ada Law who have supported me and encouraged me to continue my research when I faced the most difficult time in Canada. I owe a great deal to Ed Fowler and his family, Martha, Ellen, and Stuart as well as Paul and Laurie Gilmore from the Rotary Club of Kitchener for their generosity and great support. Without their kindness and understanding, it would not have been possible for me to finish my Master’s work. Finally, I reserve most heartfelt thanks for my parents, Toshiaki and Shizuko Yoshimura for their unceasing support. They have been my foremost supporters, believing in this research when I felt like giving up. I extend thanks for the generous funding that was provided to me for research in 2005- 2007 by the Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholarship Program. Research funds from the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities Ontario Graduate Scholarship Program as well as the University of Waterloo President Graduate Scholarship Program also aided my research in 2006-2007. Funds for research in summer 2006 were provided under a grant obtained by Dr. Geoffrey Wall from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1 CONTEXT, RATIONALE AND SCOPE............................................... 1 1.1 Introduction............................................................................................................... 1 1.2 Research Context ...................................................................................................... 2 1.3 Rationale ................................................................................................................... 4 1.4 Structure of Thesis .................................................................................................... 7 1.5 Important Note to Readers........................................................................................ 8 CHAPTER 2 (POST)COLONIALISM, TOURISM, AND GENDER: INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’ IDENTITY FORMATION ............................................... 9 2.1 Introduction............................................................................................................... 9 2.2 Colonialism and Imperialism.................................................................................... 9 2.2.1 Defining Colonialism and Imperialism............................................................ 10 2.3 Colonial Discourse and Postcolonialism ................................................................ 10 2.3.1 Definition of Discourse.................................................................................... 10 2.3.2 Edward Said’s Orientalism .............................................................................. 11 2.3.3 Colonial Discourse........................................................................................... 12 2.3.4 Critique for Orientalism................................................................................... 13 2.3.5 Definition of Postcolonialism .......................................................................... 15 2.4 Postcolonialism, Tourism, and Gender................................................................... 15 2.4.1 Definition of Tourism ...................................................................................... 15 2.4.2 Postcolonialism and Tourism........................................................................... 16 2.4.3 Definition of Gender........................................................................................ 17 2.4.4 Tourism and Gender ........................................................................................ 17 2.4.5 Tourism, Gender, and Postcolonialism............................................................ 18 2.5 Identity Politics in Cultural Geography .................................................................. 18 2.5.1 Defining Identity.............................................................................................. 19 2.5.2 Racial Identity.................................................................................................. 21 2.5.3 Ethnicity Identity ............................................................................................. 23 2.5.4 Cultural Identity............................................................................................... 24 v 2.5.5 Gender Identity ................................................................................................ 26 2.5.6 Place Identity ................................................................................................... 27 2.6 Indigenous Peoples’ Identity Formation................................................................. 27 2.6.1 Definition of Indigenous Peoples and the Aboriginals.................................... 27 2.6.2 Postcolonialism and Indigenous Identity......................................................... 28 2.6.3 Tourism and Indigenous Identity.................................................................... 29 2.6.4 Place Identity and Indigenous Peoples ............................................................ 29 2.6.5 Gender Identity and Indigenous Peoples ......................................................... 29 2.6.6 Cultural and Gender Identity and Indigenous Peoples .................................... 30 2.7 Gap in the Literature ..............................................................................................

Women of the Seediq weave clothes and quilts for their families as they believe that only women with good weaving skill can pass through the Rainbow Bridge and be reunited with ancestors after they die. However, due to changing society, there is little demand for weaving today, and the norms observed by their ancestors are gradually disappearing, resulting in the declining number of locals capable of weaving. The weaving techniques of these Indigenous people are on the verge of disappearing. Unfortunately, when the government took measures to preserve the techniques by registering Seta Bakan as the preserver of intangible cultural heritage, and launched training classes to save such techniques, no locals were initially interested in learning weaving. After non-Seediq people were allowed to participate in learning, the course attracted weaving lovers from all over the island. The course included five learning phases within four years, which were given in urban communities. In the fourth year, the weaving teacher was invited to carry out a course to teach in her Indigenous village.

  • Where Internal and International Migration Intersect: Mobility and the Formation of Multi-Ethnic Communities in the Riau Islands Transit Zone
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Sydney eScholarship Where Internal and International Migration Intersect: Mobility and the Formation of Multi-Ethnic Communities in the Riau Islands Transit Zone LENORE LYONS AND MICHELE FORD University of Wollongong and University of Sydney While migration studies scholars have paid considerable attention to internal migration within Indonesia, as well as to international labour migration flows from Indonesia, they have rarely considered the intersections between these two processes. This paper addresses the gap through a close analysis of migration flows in one of Indonesia’s key transit areas – the Riau Islands. We argue that in the borderlands the processes of internal and international migration are mutually constitutive. The Riau Islands’ status as a transit zone for international labour migrants and as a destination for internal migrants determines its demographic profile and policies of migration control. Bordering practices are strongly influenced by the fact that not everyone who comes to the Riau Islands has the intention of moving on, and not all international migrants returning to the islands intend to go home. Our analysis demonstrates that internal migration cannot be understood as a solely national phenomenon, and that international migration cannot only be explained by push and pull factors in sending and receiving destinations. These complexities necessitate research and policy responses that take into account the unique character of the transit provinces, and the role that their geographical location plays in the formation of multi-ethnic communities and the management of migration. ndonesia is the focus of considerable attention within contemporary migration I studies.

  • An Investigation of Establishing the Indigenous Subjectivity Ecotourism of Atayal People in Taiwan
    An Investigation of Establishing the Indigenous Subjectivity Ecotourism of Atayal People in Taiwan Dr. Yin-Jen Chen, Associate Professor, Graduate Institute of Earth Science, Chinese Culture University, Taiwan Yen-Yu Chen, Ph.D. student, National Taipei University of Technology, Graduate Institute of Technological and Vocational Education, Taiwan Lecturer, St. Mary's Junior College of Medicine, Nursing and Management, Taiwan Dr. Su-Hsin Lee, Professor, Department of Geography, National Taiwan Normal University, Taiwan ABSTRACT In the development of tourism for indigenous peoples, ecotourism tends to be used to relive nature, natural, cultural, and environmental education, and create the opportunity to activate economic development of homelands. Although ecotourism provides a more proactive and positive tourism pattern to tribes, what academics and practitioners care about is that tribal communities develop tourism activities and develop autonomy during the promotion process. How to inherit and extend the spirit, value, and living system of the traditional culture of indigenous peoples, and put them into practice in subjective ecotourism of tribes, is an issue worthy of discussion and reflection. Therefore, this study used multidimensional Scaling to analysis and assesses the perceived status of seven common activity types of tribal ecotourism. This study used nine indices: community empowerment, subjectivity, traditional culture, participation, self-identity, communication, nature-based, conservation, and commerce to perform cluster analysis, benchmark analysis, and assessment on the competitive situation, and further develop appropriate subjective ecotourism mechanisms for indigenous peoples. Multidimensional Scaling and cluster analysis showed that, from the perspective of Atayal people, the community empowerment and subjectivity of “Indigenous Culture Interpretation” were better than other types of ecotourism.

Databases were systematically searched between 2010 and 2012 and 60 papers were selected for review. (Fig.1, Fig.2). About 50-60 thousand Chinese go oversea for medical treatment not including the health examination and plastic surgery. Moreover, the target Asia countries are India and Thailand because they provide more cheaper medical services. There are lots of Chinese individuals came to Taiwan searching medical evaluation and therapy about that time. However, due to the political policy changed that the Chinese people are prohibited to come to Taiwan individually, therefore, the medical tourism were marked reduced. In the meantime, China tries to develop inbound and outbound medical tourism themselves and providing more cheaper and quality medical treatment and health examination. Key words: Medical tourism, benefits, risks, Political policy, Taiwan, China Figure1: Theoretical model of medical tourism decision-making. Note the unidirectional arrows which indicate the complexity of the relationships between the factors in the model.

  • Indigenous Knowledge Construction and Experiential Learning of Taiwanese Aborigines
    International Education Studies May, 2009 Indigenous Knowledge Construction and Experiential Learning of Taiwanese Aborigines Ying Lee Department of Adult and Continuing Education National Taiwan Normal University 162 Sec.1 Hoping E. Rd. Taipei 106, Taiwan Tel: 886-2-2393-6798 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Indigenous peoples in Taiwan belong to the Austronesian racial group. Confined to their oral language tradition, knowledge about Taiwan aborigines based on written documents reflected the positionality of dominant ethnic groups. This qualitative study employed participatory research approach to explore the process of producing their own knowledge through collective investigation of problems and issues among Taiwan aborigine tribal members in the Nantou region. Nantou is located in the central mountain range of Taiwan. The data were collected through participatory observation and interviewing 6 key research participants about their experiences of participating in this project. Two main findings are revealed from the analysis of these data. The first finding is the participants’ expectation of adult educators’ role as an information provider. They also expect adult educator as a facilitator for promoting the project to move towards a more empowering praxis and as a mediator for attracting external attention on indigenous voices. The second finding is that minority’s experiences are always a site of struggle and central to this struggle is the reconfiguration of ‘ethnicity’ which is rooted in socio-cultural context. Taking account of context, experience might be distorted while experiential learning can be stigmatizing, in that learners can become un-reflective prisoners of their experience. However, experience certainly has the potential of liberating marginalized learners.

  • The Heritage Language Acquisition and Education of an Indigenous Group in Taiwan: an Ethnographic Study of Atayals in an Elementary School
    THE HERITAGE LANGUAGE ACQUISITION AND EDUCATION OF AN INDIGENOUS GROUP IN TAIWAN: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY OF ATAYALS IN AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL BY HAO CHEN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Secondary and Continuing Education in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Mark Dressman, Chair Professor Sarah McCarthey Professor Liora Bresler Assistant Professor Wen-Hao Huang ABSTRACT In this study, I used ethnographic methods to investigate the learning and education of the heritage language of a group of indigenous students in Taiwan. Traditionally, their heritage language, Atayal, was not written. Also, Atayal was taught at schools only recently. As one of Austronesian language families, Atayal language and culture could have been part of the origin of other Polynesians in the Pacific Islands. Furthermore, as an Atayal member I was interested in knowing the current status of Atayal language among the Atayal students in school. I also wanted to know the attitudes of Atayal learning of the participants as well as how they saw the future of Atayal language. Last, I investigated the relationship of Atayal language and Atayal cultures. I stayed in an Atayal village in the mid mountain area in Taiwan for six months to collect observation and interview data. The research site included the Bamboo Garden Elementary School and the Bamboo Garden Village. In the 27 Atayal students who participated in this study, 16 were girls and 11 were boys. They were between Grade 2 to Grade 6.

  • Departing from Java: Javanese Labour, Migration and Diaspora
    Book Review Rosemarijn Hoefte and Peter Meel (eds.) (2018) Departing from Java: Javanese Labour, Migration and Diaspora. Copenhagen: NIAS Press. ISBN 9788776942458 (hardcover); 9788776942465 (softcover). 288 pp. US$80 (hardcover); US$29 (softcover). Reviewed by Oliver Pye, Bonn University, Germany Departing from Java is a wonderful collection of essays that I will immediately include as reading material for teaching on migration and development in Southeast Asia. Edited volumes are often a mixed bag, but in this case each individual chapter was fascinating, relevant and offered something new. Migrancy has become such a defining part of everyday life for millions of Indonesians (and for people everywhere), and the quality of these studies is testament to the amount of academic work that has gone into researching the experience of migrant workers. The first surprise is the historical depth and scale of migration from Java. The book covers colonial and postcolonial migration within Indonesia and the Dutch empire, as well as the contemporary movements of migrant workers to Malaysia, East Asia and the Middle East. Some of the first migrants were the exiled political opponents of the Dutch; they ended up in places like South Africa and Sri Lanka. Many others were settlers in the colonial and postcolonial Transmigration Programme. But the vast majority were workers – first indentured workers shipped by the colonial power to plantation and mining colonies on Sumatra, New Caledonia (a French overseas territory located east of Australia) and Suriname in South America. These transnational diasporas are dwarfed by contemporary migration. Examples discussed in this volume are palm oil and factory workers in Malaysia, factory workers, domestic workers and fishermen in Taiwan, and female domestic workers in Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai and Saudi Arabia.

  • A Comparative Study on the Atayal and the Truku in Taiwan
    研 究 論 文 Journal of Archaeology and Anthropology‧68:1-44‧2008 The Reinvention of Ethnicity and Culture: A Comparative Study on the Atayal and the Truku in Taiwan Mei-hsia Wang∗ ABSTRACT In this paper, I have examined the ethnic classification based on the Japanese colonial background in the first part. Secondly, I have discussed the process of the Truku Name Rectification Campaign and the standards of definition of an ethnic group proposed by the leaders of the campaign. These standards reflect the objective classification in contemporary society; therefore, the “objective” standards led to many conflicts. In order to understand the name rectification campaign, understanding the Taiwanese political and economical background is necessary. On the one hand, the government in power supported the ethnic group campaign to highlight that Taiwan is a country with multiple ethnic groups or to gain votes. On the other hand, elite aboriginals could participate in politics and increase the numbers of members in Congress. Also, they could promote a self-governing movement to change the aboriginal disadvantages in politics, economics and culture. When the name campaign succeeded, how to reconstruct “Truku culture” became an important issue. The ancestral ritual provides a field on which to congregate the “Truku” collective consciousness. Although ancestral rituals disappeared when the Presbyterian Church questioned their legitimacy, these processes created a chance for people to integrate modern beliefs into traditional culture. This cultural reinvention is continuing. Finally, I have made a comparison between the Atayal and the Truku cultures, especially focusing on their two key cultural concepts ─ gaga (gaya) and lyutux (utux).

  • THE MEANING of DIASPORIC IDENTITY: a Case of Indonesian Community Overseas
    THE MEANING OF DIASPORIC IDENTITY: A Case of Indonesian Community Overseas Irin Oktafiani Research Center for Population Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Jakarta, Indonesia Email: [email protected] Abstract This paper argues that the term of the diaspora in Indonesia has been transformed and simplified from the general diaspora concept and its conceptual meaning is not enough to define the Indonesian diaspora. The Indonesian government have already made a clear characteristic of Indonesian diaspora through the Presidential Regulation No. 76 of 2017, it is stated implicitly that Indonesian diaspora is whoever living abroad, despite they only live there for a short period. Regardless of what the Indonesian government has done to define the meaning of the diaspora, the definition is not enough to explain about Indonesian diaspora. By any conditions, the Indonesian government could not neglect the history of some Indonesian political refugees in 1965 or 1998 since there was a painful history left behind and it is unsure whether they want to recognize themselves again as Indonesia. On the other hand, the second generation or more of Indonesian who already got another country citizenship, can not be guaranteed to have a sense of belonging with Indonesia and want to recognize that they have Indonesian descent. This paper will elucidate what really matters in the term of Indonesian diaspora in the sense of belonging and the confession that they are being attached to Indonesia. Keywords: diaspora, Indonesia, recognition, sense of belonging Abstrak Makalah ini memperlihatkan bahwa istilah diaspora di Indonesia telah bertransformasi dan disederhanakan dari konsep diaspora umum dan makna konseptualnya tidak cukup untuk mendefinisikan diaspora Indonesia.
