| 摘要： | 本研究探討台北兒童藝術節（2000-2011）的文獻中，所呈現的台灣的兒童與童年觀。藉由建構式紮根理論與文本分析等研究方法，將原本平凡並熟悉的資料，用嶄新且陌生的角度來分析，以期增加對現代台灣兒童觀點的瞭解。
研究發現台北兒童藝術節中的兒童觀結構是相當複雜的。其中“兒童爲成人的未來”爲本研究所提出的中央範疇，此範疇反映文獻中對兒童教育與學習的重視、成人對保存兒童正向特質的渴望、與對控制或給予兒童的自主性的矛盾。除此中央範疇，研究資料中亦顯示對“無意識的兒童”、性別問題以及中西文化融合的觀點。
Drawing from constructivist grounded theory and dramatic analysis, this research explores the representation of Taiwanese child and childhood through the materials from Taipei Children’s Arts Festival 2000-2011. It is in the hope of contributing to the overall understanding of the contemporary Taiwanese perspective, by turning mundane, familiar material into something fresh and unfamiliar.
The main findings of this research indicate a complex construction of the Taiwanese child and childhood. The central category states that Taiwanese children are constructed as adults’ futures. This reflects the emphasis on learning and teaching, explains adults’ desires to preserve children’s positive qualities, and their contradictory concepts of “control vs. agency”. Beyond the central category, the data also reveal the concepts of the unconscious child, gender issues, and a mixture of western and eastern cultures.
