鄰避情結(Not in My Backyard,縮寫NIMBY)是一個複雜,充滿矛盾的現象。依據內政部訂定之「推展社會福利補助經費申請項目及基準」,身心障礙福利機構基地三百公尺內不得有「鄰避設施」。但是,當身心障礙設施在迴避這些鄰避設施的同時,自己也經常成為社區居民所抗拒的鄰避設施。本研究同時採取質化與量化兩種研究方法,一方面透過針對身心障礙領域工作者的問卷調查,瞭解台灣身心障礙領域實務工作者對身心障礙者、身心障礙機構社區化,以及機構抗爭處理的看法。另外也對抗爭事件第一線處理者進行深度訪談,以瞭解他們與民眾互動的實際經驗、機構進駐方式、抗爭處理與因應措施,以及其背後的思考邏輯。希望藉由這個研究供身心障礙領域工作者,與抗爭第一線處理者對身心障礙機構進駐社區有更近一步的認識與反思。
NIMBY (Not-in-my-back-yard) is a complicated and controversial phenomenon. According to the Ministry of the Interior, services for the disabled should not be established within 300 meters of NIMBY facilities. However, services for the disabled are themselves considered NIMBY facilities by local communities, and thus often face demonstrations. In this study, a questionnaire is used to find out the general attitude toward the disabled, communitization, and the protest against the agency. Also, we interview first-line agency workers who have managed and handled community protests against the service agencies for the disabled in Taiwan. This study compares their experiences and strategies in handling these public protests with how, as reported in several studies, protests against pollution facilities have been handled. By doing this, this study shows new perspectives and directions for future study.
