Abstract

Decision-making is the study of identifying and choosing alternatives based on the values and preferences of the decision-maker. Decision-making is also the process of sufficiently reducing uncertainty and doubt about alternatives to allow a reasonable choice to be made Research methods used in this study include naturalistic (unobtrusive) observation and case study. The Miaoli County Government (MCG) carried out an urban planning which intended to expand the Jhunan base of Hsinchu Science Park and designated areas on the periphery of the Jhunan base; hence, they needed to confiscate the land by zone expropriation. The Innolux Corporation requested the MCG to expand 4.98 hectares of land allocation at March 13, 2008, therefore, MCG formulated the Hsinchu Science Park Chunan base area around a specific area expand plan . However, Taichung High Administrative Court (THAC) issues a judgment that the demolition of 4 houses by the MCG on July 17, 2013 is illegal. Therefore, THAC sentenced the 4 house owners won and their land expropriation must be revoked; other 20 house owners’ appeal was dismissed. But the Chang pharmacy and 22 householders delegated a lawyer to appeal at January 29, 2014. This appeal causes the Dapu land expropriation case undetermined yet and the judicial process must go through all over again. Comparing the decision-making theories and the Miaoli Dapu farmland expropriation case shows that the organization process model and bureaucratic politics model by Alison (1971) explain largely the decision-making in the Dapu farmland expropriation. The organizational SOPs and power do matter, and most decisions in Dapu farmland expropriation are made based on organizational process and political power rather than rationality.
