In 1949, the Republic of China was defeated in the Chinese civil war. Some 600,000 Nationalist military servicemen and women and their family members retreated to Taiwan. In order to reduce ethnic friction, the government settled the Nationalist military's family members into designated secluded areas, which gradually becamed military kindred villages. Military kindred villages are a product of their times. They are embodiments of the unique life experiences and cultures of a generation of Chinese immigrants, and are testaments to the process of multicultural integration in Taiwan. With the process of urbanization accelerates, many military kindred villages have been demolished, and special cultural landscapes have disappeared. In recent years, however, the protection of cultural heritages and cultural tourism have gained in importance. Hsinchu City under Lin Zhengze's mayoralship established the country's first military kindred village museum. This article takes the Hsinchu Military kindred Village Museum as a case study to discuss the management strategies of small theme museums, with particular emphasis on the positioning of the museum's functional types and the corresponding marketing strategies.
