[[alternative]]The Change of Farmers' Associations Autonomy in Taiwan

[[abstract]]臺灣農會成立至今超過百年，歷經日據時期、國民黨威權統治時期、政黨政治競爭民主化時期，以及政黨輪替後的民主鞏固時期。不同時期執政（統治）者總會要求農會扮演更多非農業以外的政治功能與角色，農會作為一個基層社會組織能如何面對、因應或轉型？甚至做為一個行動主體爭取自身的權益？相對於其他社會組織(或利益團體)，農會為何能比其他職業團體更具影響力？這樣的特色給農會帶來怎樣的影響？本文將採歷史研究途徑，借用影響統合主義類型的因素與架構，探討不同時期國家與農會互動關係，國家對農會的支配模式，以及農會呈現自主性角色的轉變過程。[[abstract]]Farmers’ associations were established over one hundred years in Taiwan. Farmers’ associations have well-developed organizations to mobilize support and credit unions to provide financial services. The ruling regime asked for farmers’ associations taken on additionally non-agricultural function and role from Japanese era to KMT. How did farmers’ associations act from a tool for controlling to an autonomous role？ This thesis uses corporatism to discover more adequate ways of conceptualizing alternative patterns of state-farmers’ associations relations
