中研院张立云研究员来我院作学术讲座
 
中央研究院社会学研究所研究员、国立台湾大学社会学系兼任教授张立云于2012年4月19日，应社会学系刘欣教授的邀请，来我院作学术讲座。她演讲的题目是“全球化时代公民取向：21世纪初的台湾高中生”。张立云教授以2001—2008年台湾教育长期追踪调查资料库数据为依据，对当前台湾高中生的价值与社会取向进行了详细的描述和分析。她的研究发现，台湾高中生的道德取向、公民价值观有着高度的不一致，并且很难达成共识。他们对待生活、教育、婚姻和工作的取向更多地表现为个人主义，这与在世界范围内普遍流行的模式相一致。基于这一研究发现，张立云教授得出结论，在日益全球化的社会中，青年人的价值和社会取向是各种复杂力量综合作用的结果。讲座由刘欣教授主持。本院40余名教师、研究生和博士生参加了报告会，听众评议和提问十分活跃，现场气氛热烈。
 
 
演讲摘要：
 
Having gone through significant phases of democratization and economic advancements, Taiwan has commanded much attention in the world arena through which models of development are legitimated. While intellectual discourses have mostly pointed to the unique attributes and trajectory of the Taiwanese experience, less attention has been given to the changes in citizenship values and orientations. This paper examines how Taiwanese high school students relate to the society on a variety of moral, civic, and social values. Some of such values bear universalistic principles while others emerge since the second half of the last century. These include, for example, rules of law, democracy, social equality, relation with animals, and environmental preservation. The data are drawn from the Taiwan Education Panel Survey, 2001 - 2008. A representative sample of 12th graders (mostly born in 1989) from 287 higher secondary schools was surveyed in 2007 and a total of 18,995 students completed the survey. Taiwanese high school students reveal highly varying values and orientations toward moral and civic issues. There is hardly any consensus among students on the civic values under study except that gender differences are discernable. Their orientations toward life, education, marriage and family, and work, on the other hand, reveal a strong individualistic orientation, in congruence with models that are prevalent at the world level. Students’ values and orientations are deviated from those of their parents in different directions and degrees, depending upon the types of values and orientations, suggesting that complicated forces affect the formation of civic values and social orientations of the young people in an increasingly globalized society such as Taiwan.
