Women under Wartime Mobilization in Taiwan¡]1950~1958¡^

In the past researches, the discussions of war took place in the predominantly male mainstream, and neglected gendered war roles. This study attempts to combine war, state with women and discuss women under wartime mobilization in Taiwan.
Since the Chinese civil war erupted in 1946, Taiwan has become one of the supporting places of military matters. After the Chinese civil war, Kuomintang government moved its temporary capital to Taipei Taiwan in 1949. However, when Kuomintang government moved in Taiwan, it also simultaneously transplanted the wartime mobilization in Taiwan. The purpose of this thesis lies in discusses the connection between the state and women as well as the relations of women under wartime mobilization. To figure out the female model that was constructed by the state in the wartime and the relations of women under the power structure. Further to analyze the purpose behind the policy of wartime mobilization, and the influence on women.
From this thesis we observe that the purpose of the wartime mobilization was for Kuomintang government¡¦s political power. Besides, women played the subordinate role under the wartime mobilization, didn¡¦t exert their abilities by the war, but carried on traditional division of labor. Definitely, the wartime mobilization was a method to consolidate authoritarian regime. Furthermore, women mobilization and strengthening men dominating women were parts of this method.
