台灣社會主義運動的起源及其資本主義論（1920~1924）

Abstract

這是一篇關於國際社會主義運動如何在殖民地出現的案例研究。殖民地台灣的社會主義者在島內外所發起或參與的持續性組織化活動、最終所形成的組織，以及在組織過程中圍繞著台灣資本主義發展問題而形成的論述或討論，則是本研究的對象。本文認為，台灣社會主義運動初期的發展以無政府主義與共產主義（布爾什維主義）的關係為主軸。隨著共產主義勢力的日漸上升，陸續出現以資本主義階級分化為主題的台灣資本主義論述、以及具有共產國際色彩的路線討論。本文並認為，存在於中國國民革命內部的緊張關係──政治革命對社會革命、民眾運動對武裝鬥爭、民主主義革命對社會主義革命、先鋒隊對統一戰線──是研究台灣社會主義運動史時不可或缺的參照系。

This is a case study exploring how international socialist movement emerged in a colonized society. The constantly organized activities which socialists in the colonized Taiwan called into action and participated in, the organizations which came into existence as the results of these activities, and the discourses and discussions developed from questions concerning the development of Taiwanese capitalism through this period will be examined in the study. This thesis considers that the relation between Anarchism and Communism (Bolshevism) played a critical role in the early stage of Taiwanese socialist movement. As the Communist force got stronger, there came along the discourses on Taiwanese capitalism on the basis of class differentiation along with the discussion on political lines from the perspective of Comintern. Furthermore, this thesis assumes that tensions within the Chinese National Revolution - political revolution vs. social revolution, people's movement vs. arms struggle, democratic revolution vs. socialist revolution, Communist avant-garde vs. united fronts - are integral parts of the study of Taiwanese socialist movement history.
