臺灣道路命名原則變遷：以地方法規為中心的討論（1945-2003）

The Change of Street-naming Principles in Taiwan: A Discussion on Local Regulations (1945-2003)

臺灣對街道名的批判地名學（critical toponymy）研究中常論及命名法規，本研究欲統整精省前、後的道路命名法規，並探究地方首長政治立場與命名原則之關係，以各級政府公報為主要材料，討論1945年至2003年臺灣道路命名原則的特色、差異與變化。
1945年終戰後至精省前，臺灣的道路命名原則基本沿襲自1945年行政長官公署頒布的原則。在此期間，經過從「改正」到新命名、兩直轄市析出等過程，命名原則大體無實質變化。1999年起，道路命名法規成為縣市自治事項，各縣市不同程度地刪除或保留中華民國意識型態命名原則，但與縣市首長黨派、政治立場無明顯對應關係，可能與行政作業時間、制定程序乃至於其時民主化的政治背景較有關。綜觀戰後臺灣的道路命名原則，在命名權上，有1980年代上半和1999年二階段轉移予縣市政府的情形；在意識型態上，中華民國意識型態於1990年代起陸續退場，但仍有部份留存，相對地有部份更加著重在地特色的原則出現。
戰後至精省後，命名原則的延續與調整、不同意識型態的退場與現身，雖未必受當時首長影響，但也非自外於政治，仍然與政治民主化、認同的多元化等政治背景密切相關。

Critical toponymy studies in Taiwan often discuss street-naming regulations. This study aims to consolidate and examine the street-naming regulations before and after the“downsizing province”reforms (精省), and to explore the relationship between the political stances of local politicians and the principles on street-naming. This study discusses the characteristics, differences, and changes of street-naming principles in Taiwan from 1945 to 2003, by using the government gazettes as the main materials.
After the end of World War II (WWII) in 1945 and before the“downsizing province”reforms, the street-naming principles in Taiwan basically followed those promulgated by the Taiwan Administrative Office (臺灣省行政長官公署) in 1945. During this period, through processes such as renaming (Kai-cheng改正), naming (命名), and the separation of two special municipalities, there were no substantial changes in naming principles. Since 1999, the regulation of street-naming has become a matter of autonomy for counties and cities. The street-naming principles which embody the ideologies of the Republic of China (ROC) have been removed or retained in different degrees in different counties and cities. However, there is no clear correspondence between magistrates' and mayors' party affiliations or political stances and naming principles, which might be more related to the time of the administrative operation, formulation process, and even the political background of democratization at that time. Looking at the street-naming principles in Taiwan after WWII, in terms of the power of naming, there were two phases of decentralization in the first half of 1980s and 1999. ROC ideologies began to decline from the 1990s onwards, with some placing greater emphasis on local characteristics, but some counties and cities continued to retain them.
After WWII until 2003, the continuation and adjustment of street-naming principles, as well as disappearance and appearance of ideologies, are not necessarily influenced by the politicians at the time, but they are not necessarily separated from politics. They remain closely related to political contexts, such as democratization and the diversification of identity..
