鄉村地區生活品質資本與發展策略之研究—八個鄉鎮的衡量與分析

Abstract

鄉村地區，在全球化趨勢和產業移轉下，面臨經濟、社會、環境和空間問題的衝擊與挑戰。鄉村地區發展競爭力的提升，必須將地區資源納入考量，充分運用鄉村地區資產的潛力和厚實度，研議具競爭優勢的策略方向。本研究從生活品質資本角度，在經濟、社會、環境、文化和知識資本等資本評量架構建立的基礎上，就台灣地區不同形態發展的八個鄉村，透過資料蒐集及問卷調查，分析生活品質資本的現況、存量、問題，並比較鄉村地區發展差異。結果除驗證生活品質資本指標體系的可操作性外，可發現環境、社會、文化三項資本是鄉村延續與再發展的重要基礎；另經濟和知識資本，則是形成發展方向與和提升競爭力的關鍵。

The countryside strives for promoting competition to respond challenges of economy, society, environment, and land use in global context. Many strategies regarding to rural tourism, innovation of agricultural productions, and urban-rural immigrants were not precisely considered on local status and resources. This study based on an analytic framework of “quality of life capital” tried to investigate capital factors of selected 8 rural areas in field of economy, society, environment, culture, and knowledge for comparing differences of development and conditions, stocks, and embeddness of life capital. The result not only recognized measurability of “quality of life capital” but also highlighted capitals of environment, society, and culture being important bases of sustainability and development in rural. However, the capital of economy and knowledge should be keys to raise advantages and forms of rural development.
