Abstract
日本統治台灣後,兒玉總督和後藤新平就以振興糖業作為台灣殖產興業的重心,透過發佈一系列糖業保護政策,以吸引日本資本家來台灣開設新式製糖工場。明治製 糖株式會社社長相馬半治氏在親自探查後,於明治43 年 (1910) 在東石郡六腳庄蒜頭687 番地 (今嘉義縣六腳鄉工廠村) 成 立蒜頭製糖工場1。 蒜頭糖場位於朴子溪支流新埤溪的南邊,周圍是一片平野,以旱田為主,早期即是舊式糖廍的蔗作區。它是一個由無到有,孤立於附近聚落的糖場。會社為了照顧來 自日本的幹部、職員、技術人員,以及其眷屬,除了工場區外,更規劃了機能完善的宿舍區,其中包括居住、教育、衛生、娛樂、信仰 (神社) 等設施,此聚落類型是屬於計劃性的職住複合型聚落。然而在需要大量基層勞動力的狀況下,除了純日本人的居住空間外,亦加入了台灣人的居住空間。整個聚落就 在生活機能(食、住、行、育、樂、宗教)、職位等級 (管理階層和非管理接層)、愛國情操(房屋的門口都向北)和族群關係(日本人和台灣人)的影響因素下,呈現出有異於一般自然村的面貌。 本文透過實地訪察、文獻資料和地圖的整理來釐清日治時代蒜頭製糖工場的設立、經營、廠內空間規劃的理念;進而了解到居住在職住型聚落中的居民在受到職位等 級、族群關係和社會背景的影響下而建構出的生活方式。
