Summary: | 碩士 === 淡江大學 === 建築學系 === 89 === The concept of land consolidation was first introduced when Japanese ruling Taiwan. The characteristics of this comprehensive development tool enabled Japanese to manage a city effectively. Land consolidation had been essential for a city''s growth in Taiwan until the end of the Second World War (the WWII) when Taiwanese government switched to more passive attitudes toward this tool. Land consolidations in cities became fewer and more scattered. Therefore, with the interest of this trend, the foci of this study were:
1) What role did land consolidation play in city development in Taiwan after the WWII? How did land consolidation interact with city development?
2) Based on its uniqueness, what were the outcomes of land consolidation? Did its outcomes differ from the results of general city planning?
This research, based on the development of Taipei city, was divided into two sections. The first section discussed, from historical perspective, how government''s attitudes and operations after the WWII were related to land consolidation that included issues of the impacts of laws and the compatibility of policies. In addition, the characteristics and the role of land consolidation in Taipei were further analyzed.
The second section summarized the field study on three selected land consolidation cases (areas) based on different development periods. By doing so, the impacts of planning tools on formation of space and the influences of cadastral on the development of architecture were investigated. Finally, the impacts of consolidation on residents'' lifestyles and mutation were revealed through in-depth interviews.
To conclude, unlike other [general models of urban land development], the process space formation through land consolidation was basically a way of ["thorough deconstruction and reconstruction."] Not only did this tool increase the efficiency of land use, but it also supported a planner''s ideas about modern living space. Nevertheless, the damage to urban context, the loss of precious local culture, and the weakened residential cohesion would be the major concerns over future community works within land consolidation areas.
