Abstract
According to government statistics, we try to describe the distribution of China and foreign spouses in Taiwan, and to understand the situation they are in. The situation include where they are aggregated, what field they are always working for, how they meet there mate…etc. Then we analyze the special characteristic of the location that they are aggregate, and find out what is the most important reasons that attract China and foreign spouses to move to that county or city by marriage. Finally, we will compare the situation of China and foreign spouse, and search out the cause why they always choose different location to migrate.
The result of our research is: first, there is a tendency toward changing aggregate location form north to south Taiwan for China spouses, and this tendency means that the “demand” for China spouses is change, but the “demand” for foreign spouses is quite the same in the past 20 years. On the other hand, for foreign spouses, they have no this kind of tendency. However, they have a spatial relationship which China spouses haven’t. Second, the primary industry areas are “demanding” more foreign spouses, and the places live more retired solider, also have more “demand” for China spouses. Third, Pen-Green’s hostility toward China also reflect at the “preference ” for China spouses, therefore, the higher Pen-Green’s support rates, the lower the cross-straits marriage rates. The last but not least is that even though the China and Foreign spouses also face the adaptation problem of dual identity in their new family and new society, but the migration condition they are upon and the challenge they need to handle with are quiet different. Therefore, how to provide proper help for each of them, and how to facilitate the social integration, that is what the people live in this island all need to work for.
