摘要

本文主要目的在討論客家想像社群的建構，藉由網際網路對離散客家人的助力，進一步探討客家社群在虛擬空間的誕生。首先從網際網路對客家研究的意義與價值開始，再就客家族群論述的轉變來看客家社群建構的可能，接著從時空觀與凝聚力說明網路社群分散與連結的特質，而這樣的特質卻與客家族群離散與凝聚的特性相似。本文藉由海內外客家網站的觀察，抽離客家網站建構客家社群的認同論述與想像元素，以分析客家社群建構的基礎。本文發現客家人儘管分佈世界各地，卻藉由過去感、地方感、危機感、宿命觀與光榮感以及共時性的想像拉近彼此的距離。最後總結網際網路所提供的交流平台，讓客家社群成爲可能，且是一個由眾多客家人所建構出來的想像共同體。
