碩士 / 國立臺灣大學 / 建築與城鄉研究所 / 90 / Two major concerns in this thesis: The first question is, “how does the seaside tourism in globalization effect the transition of local landscape?” The other, with the theory of production of space, I try to bring the discussion into the cultural form of space. The core of this thesis is about how those resorts with similar seaside scenery affect the transition of landscape and leisure culture; thus, I choose Ken-ting(墾丁) in Taiwan as my field. However, according to my field study and analysis in Taiwan, I found the necessity to extend my field abroad where there are more mature seaside resort experiences. Therefore, I can compare the connection of development between them. Guam in United States is the place I expand my field study.
With Lefebvre’s concept of “production of space”, I construct three fields in my thesis: Ken-ting, Guam, and Yoho resort. It is inadequate to describe the full scene of space when separating these three productions of space. However, it can help us to know more about the difference among them. Under the mutual effects between the social agents and government, Ken-ting turns from frontier to local tourist center. Through the effort of flexuous and flexible un-official departments, they create the local carnivals which gradually make the landscape official after tourism rises. While the agents tried to link Ken-ting to globalization, meanwhile, the landscape in Guam where they desire is transforming more vigorously to create virtual reality under the logic of leisure culture in globalization. When the tourists consume the experience of leisure, they use their bodies as vehicles for participating the production of space. And this participation has the potential to reverse the restriction of society. Using their bodies to pass through the fantasy strongly restricted by the capitals, those tourists find the reality beyond the restrictions.
According to the analysis through comparing Ken-ting to Guam, they are not merely passive receivers. Instead, there are chances for them to develop their own subjectivities to articulate to the network of tourism in globalization. Besides, we need to be aware that both Ken-ting and Guam are places in post-colonization which are the paradises made by capitalism. The colors of those places will be faded away when nature resources are exhausted. Moreover, with the discourse of production of space, we can find that space of representation have the potential for reversal which can make the agents see the truly locale in a different way. For those designers with self-consciousness, there is no need to abandon the signs of space; on the contrary, they have the chance to manipulate them, and therefore provide excursion in tourism to reverse the restriction of society.
