摘要 Abstract
社會運動乃是社會變遷的核心。「資訊社會」聲稱是繼工業革命後重大的社會轉型，要探究它究竟具有何社會意義，檢視社會運動的資訊經驗有其必要。本文針對「社會資訊化下的台灣社會運動的網路經驗」作初步的考察，我們強調它乃是社會差異、網路技術、與社會運動三者相互作用的結果。本文分爲兩個主要部分。第一部份，我們先以資訊技術的特性與國外社運網路經驗爲經緯，勾勒網際網路對於社會運動發展所承諾的遠景。以此爲背景，我們回顧了近兩年來網路相關的社會運動事件，對比網路社會運動在台灣所面臨的限制與低度發展的實情。第二部份，我們進一步對焦到社運網路分殊的經驗，由五個側面來檢討社會運動經由網路媒介所連結上的各種社會差異，以及這些社會差異對網路社運的影響。

Social movements lie at the core of social changes. They are collective responses toward societal transformation and represent human efforts to control their social environments. If the ”information society” is as epochal as is enthusiastically claimed, the next great transformation after the industrial revolution, then the effect of the Internet on social movements must not be overlooked. This article examines the relationship between the Internet and social movements in Taiwan during the country's early steps in becoming an ”information society”.
In this paper, we focus on the interplay between social differences, information technologies, and various social movements. The article is composed of two parts. In the first half, with reference to foreign experience, we demonstrate the promise of information technology for aiding social movements and, given local technological and social infrastructures, reveal in clear contrast the underutilization of information technology among social movements in Taiwan. In the second half, we show how differential experiences of social movements, mediated by information technology, can facilitate or constrain the expansion of social movements. Five related issues are empirically examined and theoretically discussed to grasp the complex reality of information transformation as is being experienced by social movements in Taiwan.
