The Development and Operation of the Automobile Association in Taiwan under the Japanese Rule.(1912-1945)

[[abstract]]本文以日治時期民間自動車業組成的營業組合為對象，探討同業團體活動下的自動車業態發展情形。臺灣的自動車業從1912年由日本引進後，組織自治性同業團體成為地方上業界與交通管理者解決因行業發展而衍生種種問題的方式之一，無論是抑制同業之間的惡性競爭、改善外部營業條件或是協助維繫交通秩序，1924年以後同樣由日本所導入的營業組合制度最初都能符合這些期待，此種團體也因之幾乎遍佈於各州廳。隨著時勢的發展，營業組合本身為對應更為嚴峻的問題開始轉變成其他團體，團體之間也開始嘗試聯合行動，以因應全島業界共同面臨的問題。雖然，這些團體在運作、主要功能與事務決策者不斷產生變化，但是原來最初營業組合所具有的基本特質也都仍存在著，各地的自動車業者即透過這些團體廣泛參與自身行業有關的各項活動。 根據本研究的結果，日治時期臺灣的自動車業內部存在著凝聚共識與自我協調的機制，而該機制的生成與發展確實有脈絡可循。此外，由於自動車業本身特有的公共性，該行業及其同業團體在各項事務與活動等方面，始終都與官方管理者保持密切關係。[[abstract]]This study target of this research is the association of automobile enterprises in Taiwan during the Japanese colonial period, exploring development of automobile transportation under the peer group activity.
