模糊地帶－平埔族自我認同與「平埔」、「泛原住民」族群界線

平埔族裔試圖在現代社會中擺脫既定的漢人身分，重新找回／建構平埔族的身分認同，在經歷革命性的身分再發現後，理當進入原住民範疇之中，然面對的卻是來自原住民族的拒斥。筆者本著平埔族裔的文化認同出發，欲探索當代平埔族在原漢族群關係中的身分定位。本文試圖透過對於「黑性」的反省，審視台灣原住民的「泛原住民」族群意識發展之際，所忽視的諸多問題，並指出人們對於族群「本質性」的信仰以及二元對立族群觀的缺失，納入Homi Bhabha的「混雜性」概念，盼能有助於探索被兩方力量拉扯、推擠下所造成平埔族裔自我認同的內在矛盾。

The progeny of Pingpu try to throw off their given identity as the Han people and to re-construct their own identity as indigenous in the present. But the problem is that the Pingpu continue to be excluded from the pan-indigenous movement which is making its own uncertain identity. In addition, this paper will discuss the relationship between different ethnic groups in modern society. First of all, ”Negritude” will be reflected to illuminate the shortcomings of ”pan-indigenous” discourse(s). From there, it will employ Homi Bhabha's notion of ”hybridity” to explore inner contradictions in Pingpu's self-construction of identity-including a belief in essentialism and elements of binary opposition. The main issue is to break down the way in which the single logic of identity making infuses Pingpu constructions.
