After democratization, there were three large-scale student protests, in 1990, 2008 and 2014. This paper explores the development through this period of student movement organizations, issues and interrelations between organizations and individuals.Design/methodology/approachThe study of the process of transformation and development is based on an analysis of newspaper and magazine articles and books about the student movement. To provide an insider's view, magazines, statements and meeting memos written by activists are also included.FindingsAs a legacy of the student movement in the 1980s, the 1990 Wild Lily protest advocated democratization and organized a cross-school alliance. This pattern declined, however, because it proved hard to recruit participants after democratization. Instead, student activists returned to education-related issues, and the scale of student ...

At the outset, the relevant scholarly debate would be drawn into the content, addressing the frequently asked questions in studying policing oversight. We will compare the socio-political contexts, legal system, and policing system; then moving to the institutional design of the police oversight mechanisms in each jurisdiction. We would explain the duties and division of labour within the police oversight mechanism of respective jurisdiction.

We would first give details about the post-war context of Japan, especially the influence of the United States to the constitutional and institutional reestablishment. Further explanation would be made on how the process of democratization went in alignment with the evolution of the police oversight mechanism. A special feature of the Japanese police oversight system is acknowledgement of public mandate & ‘balance representation’ in personnel arrangement of the oversight agencies. The emphasis on ‘political neutrality’, however, de facto de-empower the oversight and makes the mechanism deviate from the practice of its western democracies counterparts.

We would show how the reforms could be stagnated by the administration, with the shifting of public attention, and explaining how the mechanism is deviated from the mainstream model of civilian oversight as addressed in policing literature, due to the “scarecrow” effect mentioned above.

The examination includes the historical background of Taiwan’s public structure transformation, especially party alternation, and how it affects the institutional and cultural factors of the police system that frames the practice of protest policing. Conversely, through examining the anti-repression strategy of protesters, this research seeks to find the limits and loopholes in the legal system which undermine the accountability and controllability of protest policing.

Based on the process of democratization, I separate this history into three periods: Late martial law period (1980-1987), Transitional period (1987-2000), which between the abolishment of martial law on 1987 and first party-alternation on 2000, and Democratization period (2000-now).

Besides the economy and public factors, protest policing do play an important role in protestor discipline. But the differences in movement repertoire and recruitment power, legal system, and the changing of police system due to party alternation, make Taiwanese protestors more capable of counteracting police than Japanese protestors.

The first is some history background of Taiwan’s protest policing before the year 2000. Then I introduce the main strategies which police use, and investigate factors that structure their policing style, which include institution, culture, government, media, and protestors(Della Porta & Reiter, 1998)。Finally, I will conclude on the way of Taiwan’s protest policing and identify some challenges which Taiwan’s police faces.

本文將把焦點放在釋字第445號解釋之後,司法場域的反集遊惡法法律動員,以案件卷宗檔案與法院判決,介紹近年來此一運動取徑的訴求及變化,並就具體案例分析實際上進行法律動員時的攻防策略。
