전후 타이완 냉전주체의 형성과 공간 - 영예국민과 영예국민지가를 중심으로

Abstract

This study focuses on the honorary citizens and the honorary citizens home in order to identify the formation and space of Cold War subjects in Taiwan’s Cold War studies. In previous studies, honorary citizens, anti-communists, and honored compatriots from the mainland China, who were captured as ‘honored citizens’ by the National Government of the Republic of China in Taiwan, were mainly recognized as ‘old and sick foreign soldiers’. erefore, the government had to take responsibility for the employment and recuperation of honorary citizens, and the honorary citizens home was regarded as a ‘care space’ for such employment and recuperation. However, in the Cold War in East Asia that unfolded after the end of the Korean War, the National Government of the Republic of China, which was establishing Taiwan as an East Asia ‘anti-communist base’ along with Korea, tried to convert the honorary citizens and the honorary citizens home to ‘cold war subjcet’ and ‘cold war space’ against backdrop of ‘Retaking the Mainland’ policy. ‘Military dependents house construction’ and economic construction transformed the honorary citizens into the subject of the ‘Retaking the Mainland’ and the ‘hero of Taiwan’s modernization’.
