| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 建築與城鄉研究所 === 89 === Due to the natural conditions, Taiwan was a place suffered from serious flooding. Therefore, in the late fifty years, all kinds of flood control projects has become one of the most important infrastructure events. They also have great influence of the human-environment relationship and urban space. However, these flood control projects, which are mainly dominated by structural methods, always have huge impact of river ecology and the flood problems are still remained. Questions from this flood policy made by state, this research choose Keelong river to be the case study, try to explore the basic value and the discourse of the policy, to clarify every different actors in the decision making process and the roles they play ,and to find out the result presented on the social and special levels.
In my study, the flood control project, as the dominative power of Keelong rive landscape, is a complicated dynamic process of space production. This power, also the discourse which is composed by different actors, has been over the instrumental reason of engineers and technical bureaucrat. In other word, the objectivity and the neutrality of flood engineering, is actually controls by the political and economical issues. This flood discourse operate through a kind of mechanism, which not only cause new risk form, turns the original natural threaten into inestimable uncertainty, but also exploit and master the nature. The result is that “new flood myth” push itself into the flood circle---suffer from flood again and again. Through this mechanism, the presentation is the redistribution of risk in special level and the of profit in social level. This is what I called “the pattern of Keelong river disaster space production” in the research.
