Abstract
本文將鄰里公園視為都市政治具現的日常場域。筆者主張改制後追逐現代都市形象的新北市政府,在整頓日常環境清潔的同時,也重整了行政權力與地方社會的關係,建立「大市府」與鄰里日常世界的聯繫管道。環保概念在此過程中通過認證獎勵制度嵌入訴諸民眾觀感的政績檢驗框架,體現為滿布公園的「綠色」設施。通過檢視改制後新北市政府重整環境清潔體制的過程,以及四座三重區公園如何在里長經營下成為市政典範,本文突顯里長在追逐政績表現、建立與市府密切溝通關係的過程中,被賦予「地方經理人」的角色,成為市政的代理展演者。筆者認為,里長角色的轉變及其影響日常世界如鄰里公園的方式,具體而微地折射了重組中的地方政治生態,是掌握當代臺灣社會變遷過程的另類切入點。
In this paper, neighborhood parks are regarded as an everyday arena where urban politics is manifested. The authors argue that the New Taipei City Government, which was restructured from Taipei County, is pursuing a modern urban image through daily environmental cleaning, which has reshaped the relationship between administrative power and local society. This, in turn, has established a channel through which the "big municipal government" can reach the everyday world of local society. A performance inspection framework that appeals to people’s perceptions underpins this process. It allows the idea of environmental protection to be embedded through certification and reward measures, which then leads to the proliferation of "green" facilities in the parks. By examining how the New Taipei City Government has overhauled its environmental cleaning regime after its restructuring, and how four parks in Sanchong District have become municipal models under the management of the chiefs of villages, this paper foregrounds that chiefs of villages, while pursuing performance and hence having frequent contact with the government, have been given the role of "local managers" as the municipal representatives of municipal performance. It can be concluded that the change in the role of chiefs of villages and its influence on the everyday world, as exemplified by the neighborhood parks, has encapsulated the reorganization of local politics. This provides an alternative viewpoint for exploring the current transformation of Taiwanese society.
