碩士 === 東吳大學 === 政治學系 === 85 === In this article , I recognise the role of nationalistsin national mobilisation but stress that nationalist are not social engineers ore mere image makers as modernist and post- modernist accounts would have it , but rather social and political archaeologists whose activities consist in the rediscovery and reinterpretation of the ethnic past and through it the regeneration of their national community .Nationalism, it seems, is a repository of dangers as well as opportunities. It has so many different forms and ''national'' variations in space and time that it is often argued whetherthey can all be accommodated under the one roof . In other words, only with reference to the concrete historical contextcan we say what the term actually does or should signify. Accordingly,I will try to describe what ''Taiwan Nationalism''is and what do these nationalists do by referencing to eachdifferent history stage.
