The Tao anti-nuclear waste movement has been entangled between environmental movement and aboriginal movement over the past three decade. From 1987 to 2002, ethnic justice had been used to mobilize potential participants. Since 2011, however, the master frame has transformed to the right to environment. This article adopts framing theory to examine such transformation and the mechanisms behind it. In particular, it emphasizes the importance of generational differences and social contexts. In the past, the diagnostic frame, prognostic frame and motivational frame were colonialism, autonomy and ethnic extinction, respectively; since 2011, those frames have become environmental rights, no nukes and localism. This reflects competition between activists of different generations, the wax and wane of both aboriginal movement and environmental movement in Taiwan, as well as the change in Orchid Island's economy. It also indicates that the goal of nationalism pursued by early activists has been partially accomplished though the construction of collective identity in the process. As a result, the right to environment is used to reignite enthusiasm for internal mobilization as well as expand external support for the movement. |
