婦女定位及教育政策的思考——以女性主義的觀點

Women' s Position and Women Education Policy- Feminist Perspectives

由於受教水準提高，婦女已成為重要的人力資源，但社會仍期望婦女成為家庭的附屬者及價值的負載者，其解決之道在於透過教育，改變婦女在社會、科技、文化、經濟及政治上的定位，並展現其自主性，今日國家政策不只要回應婦女曰增的成人教育需求，更要反思其對婦女圖像的期望，因為國家對婦女的定位會影響婦女教育政策的內容，若國家視婦女為照顧者而非社會的參與者，則教育政策會成為再製壓迫的工具。因此，本文旨在由女性主義的觀點，來檢視台灣婦女的定位及目前的婦女教育政策，並建議婦女定位應放在婦女和國家互為主體的脈絡下來考量，婦女教育政策應以女性的生活經驗及知識為基礎，來揭示多元的女性圖像，並以彰權益能為目標，使婦女成為國家的能動者及監督者。

Thanks to the increasing number of well-educated women, they have become an important human capital resource. However, women are still expected by the society to be family-attached and value-loaded. The key to change women’s position in society, technology, culture, economy, and polity and to present women’s autonomy is to empower them by education. Education policies today are not only required to meet the increasing need from women in adult education, but also to review its expectation of women’s images, because the women’s position the country has will influence the content of women education policies. If the policymaker considers women as caretakers, not participants in the society, then edcuation will become the tool to reproduce the oppressed forms on women. Hence, from feminist perspectives, this article is aimed at reviewing women's position and the current women education policies in Taiwan. Also, it suggests that the women's position should be made under the intersubjective context of women and the country, and that women education policies should be made based on women's life experience and knowledge to reveal the diverse women images and should be aimed at empowerment to support women as the agents and supervisiors of the country.
