臺北市做為我國的首都雖有其主客觀因素的考量,但現今在政治、經濟、社會以及自然環境等面向,均已面臨諸多問題,尤其從國土規劃的觀點觀察,臺北市做為首都已形成一極化發展的現象,對於國土均衡性與永續性的發展難有助益。觀諸立法院南遷臺中的構想,是一項有關首都空間政治的重要議題,是以本研究認為此一議題值得吾人加以重視並討論。藉以深入思考臺北市做為首都所產生過度發展的現象,以及省思並探討首都空間改造所遭遇的困難與解決方式。實則,立法院南遷臺中議題反應臺灣區域發展的失衡性,更重要的意義在於對國土空間治理的省思與構建。本研究認為此一議題對於國土空間與國家發展至為重要。面對這樣的議題,吾人可以嘗試由空間政治的角度加以觀察,並嘗試提出相關建議,從而進行空間、職能以及部門等角度的探討。藉由本研究提供一個建構治理網絡的機會以及強化公民參與公共事務的能力,思索首都面臨的問題,並提出相關策略以提升國家與社群的競爭力。
Taipei becomes Taiwan's capital city because of many reasons. However, Taipei is faced with multi-facet problems, including politics, economy, society and natural environment. Especially, in terms of territorial planning, Taipei as Taiwan's capital has caused one pole development, not helping to equilibrium and sustainability. Recently, the proposal regarding Legislative Yuan relocating southward is essential to spatial politics of capital city. Therefore, it is necessary that the issue of moving capital in Taiwan was debated. By doing so, we can deliberate Taipei's overdevelopment, reflecting and exploring difficulties the capital city met and solving-strategies. In fact, the proposal regarding Legislative Yuan relocating southward draws the unbalance of regional development. Hence, the most essential meaning for the proposal is reflection and reframing of space governance in territories. The article thinks that there are no consensuses in this proposal for a short time, but the proposal has an influence on territorial spaces and national development. Faced with the issue, we will try to set up the spatial politics model revolving the proposal regarding Legislative Yuan relocating southward, exploring the proposal in space, function and sectors. By the research, a governance network will be built and citizen's abilities for participating public affairs also will be strengthened. We will speculate many problems met for this issue, putting forward to some suggestions to improve national and social competitions.
