敘事與正義的地方性知識──臺灣人法意識與法律空間的民族誌

Abstract

法律或權利跨越空間(space)，於在地(place)的日常生活產生何種社會作用？本文採取法文化「深層描繪」(deep description)的詮釋性研究。本文發現，權利意識在既有的「法律感知」 (legal sensibility)下，造成人際互動中建構是否為「自己人」的劃界與排除行動。本文詮釋此種「法律感知」深層法文化，包括人我難分、虛實交錯的法意識(簡化法律、裝扮法律、聲稱法律)，以及雞同鴨講、難以整合的法律空間。而這從人觀(personhood)的角度來說，可以解釋華人文化從傳統慣習主導，走向人我交換的社會過程。

This article applies an ethnographic approach, using \"deep description\", to analyze one case in Taiwan arid explain the act of imagining the real, or what Geertz called \"legal sensibility\". It finds that m situations of conflict, the process or story-telling is a constant struggle between facts and norms. The deep logic behind this. is the identification that divides people into those who are \"one of us\" and those who are not. Specifically, the demarcation of \"one of us\" influences how we imagine the real, and reflects a specific narrative and view of justice. this article develops two ways to analyze the \"one of us\". narrative and justice. First, three typologies or legal consciousness render it difficult to distinguish oneself from others and blurs the lines between the true and the raise. Second, legal space of \"talks without communication\" makes it difficult to adjust the law. This article concludes a particular view of personhood: people are constantly demarcating lines between themselves and others. Relationships within \"one of us\" become formalized and outside \"one of us\" generate pains that may become resources for future change.
