Since the Japanese occupation, colonial officials have planned the east of Taiwan to be the immigration paradise for people from Japan. Tien-fu SHIH called the development of western Taiwan during the Japanese occupation as ''the First Taiwan'', with characteristics of ''capitalist colony''; the east of Taiwan, where Amis and Puyuma People live, is called ''the Second Taiwan''. The colonizer intended and implemented the project of ''Japanization in the east of Taiwan'' for the immigrants settling in such area. Therefore, ''the Second Taiwan'' is famous for its characteristics of ''settler colony''. The immigrant population from Japan and the enclosure movement in the east of Taiwan have imperceptibly make the Amis people and other lowland indigenous peoples experience oppression in their living space. Compared to ''the First Taiwan'' and ''the Second Taiwan'', the realm of indigenous people living in mountains is called ''the Third Taiwan''. Because of the Japanese Empire's blockade policy against the mountain indigenous peoples, ''the Third Taiwan'' is also known as ''blockaded colony''. The social development of Amis people in ''the Second Taiwan'' has gradually drifted apart from that of indigenous peoples living in mountains after the Japanese occupation. This study analyzes two levels of governance by the Japanese Empire in order to understand the colonial policies, their implementation, as well as the great change for Amis people in their daily lives. The first level is the public sphere, which influenced the ordering of public life of the Amis people. The other level is the private sphere, which influenced the private lives of the Amis people. In addition, this study also utilizes the perspective of new social history, highlighting voices of Amis people about their experience of civilizing policies of the colonial authorities, especially their everyday resistance at the local level caused by the cultural conflict. |
