Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 新聞研究所 === 101 === Adopting the cultural studies’ approach, this study aims to illustrate Cultural Politics of “Nostalgic TV Drama of Waishengrens” in Contemporary Taiwan by anchoring three major TV capitals (public TV capital, Taiwan business capital and co-productions TV capital between China and Taiwan). By contextualized text analysis, this study notes that the communication between Taiwan and China in Post-Cold War era, the de-regulation of politics and media after KMT government abolishing martial law, and the change of ethnic politics of Taiwan lead some TV capitals to create “Nostalgic TV Drama of Waishengrens” to earn profits and cater to new ethnic identities around 2005 while Waishengren and military dependents villages were the minority in Taiwan. Meanwhile, this study shows that “Nostalgic TV Drama of Waishengrens” tend to represented historical memory between Waishengren and Hoklo, rather than the memories between Waishengren and Hakka or Aborigines, which reflect the main ethnic conflict in Taiwan. In addition, during the conflict between different political parties in Taiwan and the TV censorship in China, the narrative style of “Nostalgic TV Drama of Waishengrens” were de-politicized and tend to ignore the conflict between Waishengren and Banshengren, as well as the war between KMT and CPC around 1949. Furthermore, the weakness of Taiwan’s TV drama market led some production teams ingratiate with China’s TV drama market preferentially; this showed the crisis of TV drama’s production in Taiwan.
