碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 客家研究碩士在職專班 === 101 === The Hakka group has always been connected with migration. The Hakka people moved from Mainland China to Taiwan and has kept moving within Taiwan. From the 1960s to the 1970s, Taiwan’s economy developed quickly. Taipei became the center of politics, the economy, culture, and administration, which attracted people to immigrate there. The peripheral districts, Taoyuan, Hsinchu, and Miaoli, are where Hakka people concentrated. A lot of farm village people moved to the city for work and to study. Hakka people, who moved to Taipei City were, scattered around the city. Compared to Minnan people who have the advantages in population and economically, and mainlanders who have political advantages, the Hakka people are in a minority and vulnerable. When interacting with other groups, Hakka people are self-abasing and lack confidence. They have no choice but to learn the language of the predominant groups and strategically hide their language and culture in order to adapt to the social environment in the city. As a result, the group awareness of the Hakka is getting weaker. They speak Chinese instead of their mother tongue in private and Mandarin and Taiwanese in public. This is why there is the phenomenon known as the invisible Hakka in the city. Hakka people become invisible in society; however, this does not mean that the Hakka language and culture are being assimilated. Instead, this is the process of Hakka people adapting in the city because of migration. The parade “Give my mother tongue back” in 1988 awakened the group awareness of Hakka people living in the city. Hakka recognition reappeared and gradually got rid of “the invisible”.The Hakka Affairs Council, established in 2001, is devoted to promoting the Hakka language and culture, and displaying them in public. Also, it provides places for Hakka people to gather around and elevates recognition of the Hakka. In the multi-culturale society, let other groups understand and know Hakka language and culture. Furthermore, every group can accepts each other.
