縉紳化與新消費主義的興起－以國立臺灣大學為例
Gentrification and New Consumerism: The Case Study of National Taiwan University
摘要
過去二十年來，臺灣高等教育過度擴張，各大學大量伺機擴大校地、興建新校舍。而為增闢財源來支持大學開發經費，校園環境也發生巨變，首先是大學區位的移轉，製造鄉村的新校區；其次是校園土地使用的轉變，校園從過去古樹參天、綠蔭草皮、低密度校舍、福利社、廉價學生餐廳、克難式宿舍，逐漸轉為高樓層、高密度建築群，充斥著校園商店街、豪華旅館、會議廳、巨蛋、會館等新形式商業設施，校園地景體現了大眾消費、休間與文化空間的新樣貌；第三則是企業捐贈的象徵性建築出現，成為新的校園地標，改變了校園的天際線。本文以臺灣大學為例，分析大學校園空間轉變的模式，呈現出大學新知識經濟發展的世俗化、消費主義趨勢。更進一步，以大學公共教育之名，所進行的公共空間商品化與私有化，也推進了臺北市中心的縉紳化，窮人被驅離，取而代之的是菁英階級充滿文化品味的新大學鄰里。
