  • 鄉土社會的終結──東亞地區的殖民管治和土地政策

    Colonial Administration and Land Reform in East Asia

    Series Libro 35 - 臺灣研究叢書
    一田一主的法律框架與現代測量技術,如何影響東亞殖民地的社會結構?從臺灣與香港的土地政策改革,探究東亞鄉土社會的顯著轉變。根據歐洲的土地所有權原則,任何不由公司或慈善組織擁有的土地必須由存活的個人持有。1841年,英國殖民者統治香港,實施此原則,廢除中國傳統的集體土地所有權,摧毀了宗族和廟宇的財政基礎。1860年,香港政府擴展此政策至九龍半島。幾乎同時,日本明治政府引入了相似政策,成功剷除封建領主,減少宗族和寺廟的影響。值得注意的是,當日本在1895年統治臺灣時,保留了當地華人宗族和宗教團體的土地所有權,而香港政府在1898年租借新界後,也對當地華人提供類似優惠。這使得臺灣和新界成為人類學家研究傳統中國社會組織的最後兩個地方。本書探討近代東亞地區在殖民統治下土地所有權制度的變化及其對當地社會結構的影響。雖然涉及中國、日本和韓國,但特別聚焦於1842至1997年受英國統治的香港 ...
