台北市赤峰街的地域經濟性格：一個衝突性地景的形塑

Abstract

台北市赤峰街的產業活動以二手汽車材料及修理業、文化創意產業為主，然而兩者的特性與客群大相徑庭，在當今的赤峰街形成「衝突性地景」。本研究以新區域地理學的觀點探討赤峰街地域經濟性格如何形塑，對赤峰街中各種不同身份的行動者進行深度訪談，加上對與赤峰街及周遭區域相關的官方文獻進行分析，用以解釋不同行動者之間或行動者與結構的互動所造成的生產及再生產。本研究認為赤峰街的地域經濟性格及經濟空間邊界之所以會持續演變，是因爲地域經濟特性不僅單純支配，而是受到多種不同的人與非人、物與非物，行動者與結構等持續不斷互動產生的結果。赤峰街之「衝突性地景」反映台灣都市可容受不同產業共存在一地的都市性格，「衝突性地景」的存在也說明區域不受限制，其邊界是變動的，既是行動的也是結構的，是混雜的。There are two main industries in Chi-Feng Street, Taipei City. One is the used automotive parts industry, which includes parts retailing and repair shops; the other is the cultural and creative industry, whose industrial location choices and target customers are entirely different. These industries in Chi-Feng Street created a conflictual landscape. The thesis uses the perspective of new regional geography to discuss how the regional economic characteristic in Chi-Feng Street formed. To explain the interaction between different actors, between actors and the structure, and the production or reproduction that caused by the interactions, this paper attempted by interviewing different actors in Chi-Feng Street, analyzing the official documents published by Taipei City government, and examining the newspapers or books that record developing process about Chi-Feng Street and the surrounded region. From the research, the regional economic characteristics and the boundaries of Chi-Feng Street will continue to develop and change. The regional economic characteristics are shaped not only by individual actors or structures but by the numerous continuous interactions between human actors and non-human actors as well as the actors and the structure. The conflictual landscape reflects common urban characteristics in Taiwan, where various industries coexist in nearby neighborhood. It also reflects that regions are not restricted to specific boundaries; rather, boundaries are changeable. After all, regions are hybrid, not only shaped by actors but also by structure.
