[ 摘要 ]
本論文採取符號互動理論（Symbolic Interactionism）的觀點，探討都市原住民在污名情境下的社會互動模式與生活策略，主要從Mead的自我理論論述都市原住民污名化心靈與自我的形成過程，並從Goffman的自我表演理論來分析都市原住民面對身分污名指涉的生活策略。
研究結果發現，被殖民的社會過程與經驗、經由反身性作用與互為主、客體的過程，建構了都市原住民對其身分的污名認同。因此，在殖民的社會情境裡，都市原住民形成了他性自我（Self-as-Othered）及為他性身體（body-for-others）經驗的現象。不過，隨著社會結構的變遷、社會運動的興起及維護原住民族權益的潮流等現象，使得都市原住民的心靈與自我開始轉變；在污名社會下，都市原住民發展出「創造優勢空間、展現文化主體性」的生活策略，以因應污名化的社會情境。另外，污名社會情境亦隨著社會價值的轉變即將消失，取而代之的是「族群共生與和諧的社會舞台」。
從都市原住民自我結構的轉變及污名社會舞台的消失顯示，台灣社會已從「封閉型社會」轉型為「開放、多元的社會結構」。最後，本論文也針對Mead與Goffman的理論及都市原住民相關研究文獻做理論的反思

This thesis takes the viewpoint of symbolic interactionism to explore the social interactions and living strategy of the urban indigenous inhabitants under a stigmatized environment. It mainly proceeds from Mead’s theory of self in expounding the stigmatized mind of the urban indigenous inhabitants and the formation of self, and also analyzes the living strategy of the urban indigenous inhabitants in face of accusations of identity stigmatization using the theory of the presentation of self by Goffman.
Research results show that the social process and experience of colonization, the action of reflexivity and the process of changing from subject to object and vice versa have constituted their identification with the stigmatized identity of urban indigenous inhabitants. Hence, in a colonial social situation, the urban indigenous inhabitants have experienced the phenomenon of self-as-other and body-for-others. However, in the wake of the transformation of social structure, rise of social movements and trend of safeguarding their rights, the mind and self of the urban indigenous inhabitants have started to change. In a stigmatized society, they have developed the living strategy of “creating a superior space and exhibiting their subjective culture” in response to the stigmatized social situation. Moreover, the stigmatized social situation also fades away with changes in social values and in lieu of it is “a harmonious social stage and ethnic coexistence.”
Changing in the self structure of the urban indigenous inhabitants and fading of a stigmatized social stage show the society in Taiwan has been transformed from a “closed society” to “an open and diversified social structure.” Lastly, this thesis also tries to carry out a theoretical rethinking about the theories of Mead and Goffman and relevant research documentation about urban indigenous inhabitants.
