戰後臺灣懲罰社會之研究—以監獄執行為中心
The Research on Society of Punishment in Post-War Taiwan-Focus on the Punishment Practice in Prison
摘要
戰後臺灣懲罰社會發展有著迷樣而令人驚心動魄的複雜歷程。本文研究策略採取社會學的詮釋取向，透過時序與歷史文本進行論述分析，目的在於企圖解構懲罰的實踐如何經由現實的政治、經濟，社會及文化的交互作用，而對社會集體良知發展產生深刻影響，進而在監獄執行，並如何產生具體的懲罰實踐效果，以及在持續更迭的道德秩序脈絡中，監獄的執行又如何再生產懲罰的未來。 戰後國際左翼與右翼兩大陣營在中國大陸交鋒的結果之一，即國共內戰的政治現實，與戰後臺灣地區戒嚴、通貨膨脹與經濟極度蕭條、社會治安敗壞，及去日本化再中國化的文化衝擊，終致228事件的爆發，確立臺灣懲罰社會的初胚，其獨特的懲罰意涵，至今仍深遠地影響臺灣社會的發展與監獄執行。 臺灣經濟發達的同時，經歷民主抗爭與解嚴，惟犯罪的量與質持續惡化，為新塑社會秩序，使用更為強硬的刑罰政策，反造成監禁人口爆炸與擴張，這主要是忽略所增加懲罰的對象在社會經濟活動中的位置，與監獄不斷運用現代科技以管理及處遇收容人，使得刑罰策略朝向更理性化方向前進。

The development process of the society of punishment in post-war Taiwan, like a mystery, is complex and heart-shaking. The researcher adopts the interpretive approach of sociology by discourse analysis the context of time-series and history, intending to deconstruct how the development of Taiwanese collective social conscience was affected profoundly by the practice of punishment which is in a realistic circumstance of politics and economy, and under an interaction of social and culture. It furthermore probes how the punishment practice in prison produced specific effects and reproduced the future of punishment in the continually changeful trend of morality order. In the post-war Taiwan, international Right and Left wing powers waged war against each other in China, resulting in the politic realistic of Chinese Civil War. The post-war Taiwan then experienced the enforcement of Martial Law, inflation, economic depression, ruin of public order, and a strike of dejapanization and rechinalization. Finally, the uprising of 228 Incident formed a prototype of Taiwanese society of punishment, whose unusual implication of punishment is still affecting deeply the development of society and prison-practice in Taiwan. While being prosperous in economy, Taiwan experienced the contending for democracy and the abolishment of Martial Law, however, the quality and quantity of crime kept worsening as well. For constructing a new social order, the government adopted a strategy of severer punishment that resulted contrarily in imprisonment population explosion. The mainly reason are that we ignore the adding punishment subject’s position in his/her social-economic activities, and keep innovating in prison system and managing/treating inmates with technology in order to make the strategy of punishment progress toward rationality.
