中文摘要 | 最近十多年來人類學對現代國家產生了新的關注。這些新研究的一個重要主題是將國家視為不只是功能性的官僚機構,而是象徵與文化生產的重要場域,它本身是以特殊的文化方式被表徵與理解的。雖然人類學家也受到近來國家研究中治理性、國家效應與權力/知識等議題的吸引,但是相較於其他學科的研究,人類學特別著重國家的日常形構 (everyday formation),也就是國家如何在一般人的文化想像和日常生活的實踐中被建構。這也是人類學最能夠提供獨特貢獻之處。 在這樣的理論脈絡下,本文企圖以布農人的民族誌為基礎,來探討國家如何被想像、理解和建構的議題。筆者指出布農人主要是透過其親屬與領導權的觀念來認識並建構他們與國家之間的關係,企圖將國家由一外來的且可能是危險的力量,轉變為正面的、對他們有益的對象。國家被稱為sasaipuk ,是強勢並具有道德義務照顧布農人和供應其所需的。在這樣的看法下,布農人強調與國家的協調而非對抗,認為對國家的配合與順從既可敦促其履行道德義務,也不減低布農人的自主性。由此,筆者也挑戰最近人類學對反抗 (resistance) 過度沉迷的理論傾向。 |
英文摘要 | Following a recent the poetical shift to view the state as a powerful site of symbolic and cultural production that is in itself always culturally represented and understood in particular ways, this article is concerned with how the Bunun, an Austronesia-speaking in digamous people of Taiwan, perceive and imagine the state. I point out that the Bunun use their own idioms of kinship and political leadership to understand and construct their relationship with the state, in order to transform the state from an external and potentially dangerous force into appositive and benevolent provider. In attempting to oblige the state to deliver material and social goods, the Bunun place emphasis on their compliance rather than their resistance to the state. However, I argue that compliance, rather than being passive accommodation, can be a kind of “quite effective agency” in Ortner (1997)’s terms, and challenge the recent theoretical preoccupation with resistance. |
