TAO RESIDENTS\u27 PERCEPTIONS OF SOCIAL AND CULTRUAL IMPACTS OF TOURISM IN LAN-YU, TAIWAN
No full textThe purpose of this study was to investigate residents\u27 perceptions of the social and cultural impacts of tourism on Lan-Yu (Orchid Island). More specifically, this study examines Lan-Yu\u27s aboriginal residents\u27 (The Tao) perceptions of social and cultural impacts of tourism. Systematic sampling was the sampling procedure employed in this study. After the factor analysis, three underlying dimensions were found when examining Tao residents\u27 perceptions of social and cultural impacts of tourism, and they were named: positive cultural effects, negative cultural effects, and negative social effects. The results from the multivariate analysis of variance indicated that the Tao\u27s perceptions toward social and cultural impacts of tourism were different based on their educational level, employment status, income level, marital status, and length of residence. However, it was concluded that the Tao at this time do not perceive many impacts (either positive or negative) from the development of tourism on Lan-Yu
A study on the first investigation of Lan Yu in the beginning of Japan rule age Taiwan
Full text linkP(論文)Lan Yu(Orchid Island in English) is a small island, 74km off the southeast coast of Taiwan. In this island the Yami situate their villages in gentle slopes at the foot of mountains. When it was under Japanese occupation (1895-1945), the Japanese Government established a police station and schools in Lan Yu. But the Yami culture remained for five decades. It is because going to the island was limited by Japanese Government. It is in 1897 that Japanese Government made the first investigation of Lan Yu. In this paper I will clarify the details of this investigation.departmental bulletin pape

The Queer Space of China: Expressive Desire in Stanley Kwan's <i>Lan Yu</i>
No full textThis essay examines the contemporary emergence of gay and lesbian life in the People's Republic of China through an analysis of Stanley Kwan's 2001 film Lan Yu and in relation to liberal distinctions between public space and private desires. Following anthropologist Lisa Rofel's recent scholarship on expressive desire, I investigate the ways certain self-identified Chinese gays and lesbians are positioning themselves as individuals who are uniquely capable of embracing their private desires and thus at the vanguard of a new modernity in China. Lan Yu complicates this developmental narrative by presenting us with a queer space and time dissonant to conventional protocols of Western visual and political representation. The film explores what happens when neoliberal ideals and global gayness “fail” to translate. Ultimately, Kwan's discrepant modernity comes to function as a critical tool for organizing and evaluating not just the contemporary emergence of nonnormative sexualities and desires in (post)socialist China but also, and more urgently, historical continuities and ruptures among China's (semi)colonial past, its revolutionary aspirations for a socialist modernity, and its contemporary investments in a neoliberal capitalist world order. From this perspective, this essay interrogates (homo)sexuality as a discourse of development on the global stage, while examining the conditions of possibility and limits of globalizing queer studies.</jats:p
