初探客家族群的社會脈絡、交叉網絡與投票行為：以2020年臺灣總統選舉為例

A Preliminary Study on the Social Context, Cross-Networking and Voting Behavior of the Hakka Group: The Case of Taiwan’s 2020 Presidential Election

不同的社會脈絡下，政治立場不一致的人際網絡是否影響客家族群的投票行為？乃本文的問題意識。本文援引Mutz（2002a; 2002b）的「交叉網絡」概念，分析2020年總統選舉，不同社會脈絡下，人際網絡「交叉壓力」對客家族群的投票行為的影響。透過TEDS 2020資料分析結果顯示，在社會脈絡與社會網絡的共同作用下，居住在非「客家文化重點發展區」的客家選民較不去投票。此外，選民面臨的交叉壓力愈大，愈會改變投票抉擇，此現象在非「客家文化重點發展區」的客家族群中較為明顯。至於「客家文化重點發展區」的客家族群，則未因交叉壓力愈大而愈會改變投票抉擇。

Under different social contexts, do interpersonal network interactions with inconsistent political positions affect the political behavior of the Hakka? This article deals with this issue, employing “cross-cutting networks” as its theoretical structure. Subsequently, it endeavors to amend it based on the social context of the Hakka group, with the aim of applying it to the political situation in Taiwan. Based on analysis of the TEDS 2020, the results show that Hakka voters who live outside of major Hakka cultural areas tended not to vote. In addition, the greater the cross-pressure that voters faced, the more they were to change their voting choice. This phenomenon was more obvious among the Hakka voters who live outside of major Hakka cultural areas. As for the Hakka voters who live in the major Hakka cultural areas, they did not change their voting choice due to increased cross-pressure.
