Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 體育學系 === 91 === In experience of Post-Modernism era , under the multiple and variable popular culture world , the streetball is not merely a kind of sport. The most popular event of sport in youth ”streetball” had changed it’s type since infiltrated by popular culture .What kind of landscape it looked like after the city integrated with the streetball? How to establish the circulation of power firmly between teams and streetball players? Where is the position of streetball’s spectators (fans)? This research, by qualitative method, is based on two parts, observation and interviews to search and collect data. Meanwhile , using Saussure’s “semiotics theory” and Bourdieu’s “capital theory” concepts to explore the hidden meaning of streetball. This research found that the sensitivity of popular information, availability of playgrounds, the activities of advertising and propagandizing, and the difference of understanding between city and countryside streetball players made streetball different. In the playground, the appurtenances that one wore had been symbolized. The accessories that streetball players put on had skipped over the use-value or the exchange-value of things and gradually replaced by their symbolic value. The affect of power in playground had effected by personal element (the objected cultural capital, the embodied cultural capital, and the institutionalized cultural capital), spectators, stars and veteran of ballplayers etc. The embodied cultural capital is the fundamental of power. The social capital will be the key point that may change the result when game is taut.
