Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 公共行政暨政策學系 === 104 === In recent years, the government intended to set up several National Parks in succession. However, the National Parks may bring some problems for residents. As a result, some were not set up successfully; Lanyu National Park, Macau National park, Nengdan Nation Park, and Green Island National Park; were not set up because the residents worried that they couldn’t use their land freely. So they contested the government. In light of this, National Park Headquarters concerned about the interaction between residents and National Parks. Through strategic collaboration and participative management, the government lets the community residents feel involved in the management of National Park Headquarters. This article studies Taijiang National Park, the eighth National Park in Taiwan, with Taijiang Guardian Circle Project. Taijiang National Park was set up with bottom-up methods. The study contrast with other National Parks which locate on a single area, Taijiang National Park contains fourteen scattered territories. Besides, it nears the southwest of Taiwan and the residents devote themselves to aquaculture fish. When the National Park was set up, it could interfere with the work of residents. If Taijiang National Park couldn’t have nice interactions with residents, it could cause conflict between them. Therefore, this study discusses the interaction between Taijiang National Park and community residents with a case of Taijiang Guardian Circle Project.
Through documentary analysis and in-depth interviews, this article defines the meaning and characteristics of collaboration and realizes the relationships between conflict and cooperation in other National Parks. The study generalizes three aspects: identity, participation and collaboration from information. They compare with the governance collaboration process, face-to-face dialogue, trust building, commitment to the process, shared understanding, intermediate outcomes, that advocated by Ansell & Gash. This model can be used to understand the viewpoint of stakeholders and reply attitude after collaboration. Thus, the study analizes the difference from Taijiang Guardian Circle Project to community residents and discusses the level of citizen participation.
For the identity aspect, the study analyses the consensus from different points of view. In order to enhance identity with one-another, Taijiang National Park establish community place of Taijiang Guardian Circle Project. Here they have lessons to educate residents, and develop local industry. However, it is difficult to build trust with community residents, different ideas and goal, as well as a lack of trust. For the participation aspect, community residents can’t be involved in public affairs about their own initiative. On a ladder of citizen participation, community residents reach from level-three to level-six. From the collaboration aspect, the implementation of each goal will cause too many problems as a result of collaboration. So, the elements of a successful collaboration have to build-up to the identity aspect, participation aspect, and collaboration aspect. Besides, Taijiang National Park has to make community residents understand their core values. These residents can have consensus on interaction and communication continuously, allowing successful collaboration.
