英文摘要 |
This article explores the aborigine small-rent land right, which was rendered in-visible in successive land tzx reforms by Liu Ming-chuan in late Qing Taiwan(1886-1889)and the Japanese colonial government (1898-1905). With the abolition of pre-existing favorable protection of plain aborigine land rights in late Qing Taiwan, the aborigine small-rent had been misclassified as big-rent by officials and scholars alike. When land tax reforms were introduced to estrblish a modern land ownership system and abolish big-rent land right , the dissolution of aborigine land rights were exacer-bated by government intervention through compulsory rent reduction(big-rent re-duced by 40%)and further weakening of the aborigines bargaining power. |
