[ 摘要 ]

本研究動機是企圖在台灣發展文化經濟的想像之際，思索原住民生活藝術的概念，如何與現實社會有意義交會。本研究假設立場是，台灣展現的原住民生活藝術現象具備社會事實的特徵，但其場域特質應更具論述價值。

本研究問題意識為以下三項：

一、台灣原住民生活藝術在現代化進程中有何呈現？

二、台灣原住民生活藝術工作者其生活處境為何?

三、如何詮釋台灣原住民生活藝術之價值？

本研究以原住民生活藝術為部落與主流社會的中介。本研究以「趨向」與「力量」將理論概念脈絡處理，回應問題意識並以社會場域來詮釋探討。社會研究依藝術工作既開放且執著的態度，以「美感」敘述「社會學想像」，並以「社會學想像」落實「美感」。

The aim of this study is to explore how the concept of Indigenous life arts meets with the social reality in the developing process of cultural economy. Based on the hypothesis that Taiwan’s Indigenous life arts consist the characteristics of social facts, the dynamic nature of field itself deserves further discussions.



Three questions raised in this study are as followings:

1. How “Indigenous life arts” are currently demonstrated in the process of modernity in Taiwan?

2. What kinds of the living conditions of Taiwan’s Indigenous artists are involved in practices of “Indigenous life arts”?

3. How to explain the values of “Indigenous life arts” of Taiwan?



This study sets the “Indigenous life arts” as intermediary between the Aboriginal society and the main stream society. According to the theory of conceptual context, tendency and force are two major concepts in this study to discuss the approach on “the Sociological Imagination”, with open and persistent attitude. Moreover, the study not only describes “the Sociological Imagination” on the base of aesthetic concepts, but also carries out the dynamics of aesthetics with the ground of Sociological Imagination.
