碩士 / 國立臺灣大學 / 國家發展研究所 / 100 / This article examines the unequal status of female marriage immigrants in Nanfangao, Yilan, who are treated as vulnerable “others” in social relations and economic activities. I explain how ethnic discrimination leads to the vulnerable situation in different dimensions, such as economic activities and social relationship. In economic activities, these immigrants were treated like second-class citizens. The denial of their education certificates and receiving Taiwan’s National Identification cards exemplify institutional methods to limits their citizenship rights, such as equal employment opportunities. On the other hand, hiring immigrants who have no legal working permission became a way to avoid the administrative supervision of Labor Standards Act. Socially, people in traditional fishing villages have been paternalistic and thus female marriage immigrants are not only exploited by her husband’s family but by so doing also reinforce the conventional power. Husbands’ strict control over their personal freedom limited their information resource, which in turn worsen their being monitored and controlled. Feeling unfriendly watched by their neighbors and too busy to accumulate their social capital prevent them from cultivating relationship with their neighbors. Moreover, immigrants from China were regarded as threatening groups by local Taiwanese due to nationalistic politics. These Taiwanese people strongly reject the formation of immigrants’ social network and the party which represent immigrants’ own interests.
