記一次鬆散而又團結的原住民族／國對話

On A Conversation about Indigenous Imagination of A Loose-but-Efficient Solidarity Form of State

本文記錄東華大學榮譽教授孫大川與原住民民族學院院長石忠山的對談，並回應二人對民族和國家的不同想像。孫大川提出了一種「鬆散而有效團結」的國家形式，重新思考現代民族國家的嚴密組織。在對壟斷合法暴力和具有排他性民族主義形式的現代國家組織的批評中，孫大川的「鬆散而有效」的團結形式創造了一種具有原住民風格的新型態國家組織形式的另類想像。在兩岸政治局勢日益緊張、戰事可能爆發而令全世界擔憂之際，孫大川的提議試圖同時遏制好戰的中國民族主義抬頭，並鼓勵台灣以其成功的民主轉型經驗，成為改善兩岸關係，尤其是促進中國民主化之終極目標的重要參與者。

This policy forum intends to record and respond to the two-hour lecture by both Honorary Professor Sun Da-Chuan（孫大川）and his discusser Shih Chung-Shan（ 石忠山）, the dean of the College of Indigenous Studies at NDHU, through examining their different imagination of nation-and-state. Sun Da-Chuan proposes a “loose-but-efficient” solidarity form of state to counteract the rigorous organization of the modern nation-state. In his critics of the modern state organization with its monopoly of legitimate violence and exclusive form of nationalism, Sun Da-Chuan’s “loose-but-efficient” solidarity form creates an alternative imagination toward a new form of state organization with indigenous style. When the increasing political tensions between the two-side of the Taiwan Straits worry the whole world with the outbreak of war, Sun Da-Chuan’s proposal attempts to constrain the rise of militant Chinese nationalism, and to encourage Taiwan to be the vital player for the ultimate democratization of China.
