In the face of the current global context and the impacts of Taiwan's entry into WTO, community empowerment policy based on the economic idea of 'think locally? approach has become one of the vital strategies by the government of Taiwan to promote the transformations of rural communities and local industries. The innovation of goods/services related to cultural material in the community building process not only boosts the production value of local industries, but also brings about the most successful key elements in local regeneration. Recently, the policy of cultural industry has been considered as a crucial factor in helping the revitalization of the Hakka communities. As a result, some of the Hakka nonprofit organizations began to undertake commercial activities in fostering community-based cultural industries. This study focuses on the comparison of two Hakka grassrooted associations, Nanzhuang A and Gongguan B, in Miaoli County. The two groups studied have been famous for their community- based cultural industries for several years. This study aims to explore the effects of developing cultural industry in the process of community empowerment and the operations of nonprofit organizations, in particular, to understand in advance how Nanzhuang A and Gongguan B expand the civic participation and nurture Hakka cultural legacy through various commercial activities? |
