摘要

關於社區概念之探討雖多，但卻是人言言殊並無統一標準；不同研究領域有著不同的著眼點，而使社區定義有不同的內涵因素。因此，為有效理解社區之概念意涵，並剖析社區研究之發展演變，本研究試圖跳脫過去以個案研究為多數的社區研究慣例，改採用後設分析法。藉由後設分析法得出客觀結論之特性，從整體、客觀的角度整合相關社區研究，從中釐清社區定義與社區研究之演變。
本研究共分為四個探討面向，首先了解社區研究之源起，並針對台灣的社區政策作整理。其次，藉由1995年至2009年台灣博碩士論文，進行社區研究的整合與詮釋，得出社區定義的運用情形，以及社區研究的演變。第三，經篩選後共1,158篇論文進行分析，從中了解社區定義之實際運用情形，並分析社區因素，再歸納出社區研究的議題設定與研究現況。最後，比較社區研究中公共行政領域與其他研究領域之差異，藉以呈現公共行政領域之定位與特性。
透過後設分析之結果，得出社區研究之演變脈絡、關聯性與關鍵議題。基於此，提出本研究之定義，社區是指「特定地理範圍內的一群人，心理上認同社區並擁有共同的背景，在日常生活中以組織形式進行互動。」其次，予以社區研究再定位，建議未來研究不應依循制式化研究模式，而應選擇合適的研究議題與研究方法，並關注政府與社區的互動關係形式。

The researches of community are many, but what is community? There are no unified standards. It is a vague term, and it depends on the background of the researcher. Different definitions lead to different elements. From this viewpoints, it seems community is diffcult to reach for a specifically definition and attain agreement. Therefore, the author has trying to breakthrough the convention of community resesarches. Instead of case study, the author applies meta-analysis to investigate community definitions and analyze the development of community researches. Based on the characteristic of meta-analysis which seeks general conclusions, we can integrate related community researches from a whole and objective view, to clearly define community definition and the developement of community researches.
In this thesis, there are four discussion dimension. First of all, introduces the origin of community researches, also collects relevant documents including the community policies in Taiwan.

Finally, compares the domain of public administration with other domain, so as to present the localization and the characteristics of public administration.
By the result of the analysis, obtains the evolution, relevance and the big questions of community researches. Further, offers some suggestions that researches in the future should choose the appropriate research subject and method instead of relying on the fixed research pattern. Also, pay attention to the interactive relationship between government and community. According to the six variables of community, the author proposes a holistic concept of community. Community is “People who live within a geographically bounded area, united by common background, identification with community in mentally and interact with each other by organization in daliy life. ”
