摘要

本文以空間尺度政治經濟學觀點描繪臺灣與中國之「政治對立－經濟整合」的矛盾現象，並以資通訊產業的空間再結構－鑲嵌於和去鑲嵌於臺灣、與再鑲嵌於中國的案例，來分析臺灣國家機器的反應和空間策略。本文認爲，臺灣國家機器的反應是自相矛盾的：國族／民粹主義計畫試圖將外移資本帶回其管控之下，然而全球在地化策略則是朝向擁抱全球化趨勢。本文也指出國族／民粹主義計畫凌駕於全球在地化國家策略之上，使資通訊廠商與國家機器在空間尺度面向上持續角力的同時，卻愈益深深鑲嵌於中國的領土之內。

This paper uses the perspective of the political economy of scale to depict the contesting issue in Taiwan regarding the dilemma of political rivalry vs. economic integration across the Taiwan Strait. By using the case of the spatial restructuring of the ICT industry -its embedded and dis-embedded in Taiwan, as well as its re-embedded in China, this paper intends to analyze the Taiwanese state's reaction and its spatial strategies. It will show that the state's reaction has been self-contradictory-on the one hand, the national/populist project intends to bring the runaway economy under its control, while on the other hand the glocal state strategy aims to embrace the globalization tendency. This paper contents that the state's national/populist project overrules the glocal state strategy, as a result the ICT industry has become re-embedded in China even further as the contesting of scale continues.
