Focusing upon the impacts of capital and taste, this study uses the case of Kaohsiung to explore into the distinction regarding the cultural participation of the local and the foreign art works. Data have been collected through a city-wide telephone random survey and analyzed from the perspective of Pierre Bourdieu to sort out the causes and consequences of cultural participation. Statistic analyses show that, to some extent, the local/foreign cultural distinction has been the result of the symbolic violence of class power. High cultural and social capitals, according to regression analyses, defer neither participation nor support of local art works, whereas both practical taste and positive participatory experience have further encouraged future engagement with local cultural activities. However, those who reject local art works tend to be richer and younger. For them, distinction works with the discrimination against local culture, and the outcomes of their non-participation in return have led to certain kinds of class reproduction, which might be detrimental to the development of local cultural industries. |
