“共构殖民论”辨析:荷据时代台湾地区的中国内地移民与荷兰殖民者之间的关系考察

An Analysis of the“Co-colonization”Theory:An Examination of the Relationship between Mainland Immigrants and Dutch Colonists in Taiwan region during the Dutch Occupation Era

“共构殖民论”认为历史上中国内地对台移民开发活动的产生和发展,是荷兰殖民者到来后主导推动的结果,宣称中国内地移民与殖民者“相互依赖”,对台湾地区进行了“合作殖民”。这不仅美化了殖民统治,也否定了自古以来两岸之间交流融合不断发展、中国内地对台移民开发逐步深化的历史事实,并将后者和西方国家的殖民活动混为一谈,与“台独史观”实际上有着相似的叙事模式。但是,各种史料记载早已充分证明,引发当时对台移民活动的主要动力来自中国内地方面,当时对台移民活动的主导是中国内地官方与民间,而不是荷兰殖民者。荷兰殖民者与中国内地移民的关系绝非“相互依赖”,当时台湾地区各项产业的开发,均是建立在前者残酷剥削后者血汗的基础之上。后者与台湾地区少数民族一样,都是荷兰殖民统治下的受害者,乃至与台湾地区少数民族联合起来,以各种形式进行着反抗,是荷兰殖民者猜忌防范的重点对象。所谓“共构殖民论”,是对荷据时代的中国内地对台移民开发历史的严重歪曲。

The theory of“co-colonization”holds that Dutch colonizers led and promoted the emergence and de-velopment of China's Mainland’s immigration and development activities towards Taiwan region.The relationship between mainland immigrants and colonizers were“interdependent”and they carried out“cooperative col-onization”in Taiwan region.This not only beautifies colonial rule,but also denies the historical fact that cross-strait exchanges and integration have continued to develop since ancient times,and that China's Mainland has gradually deepened its development of immigration to Taiwan region.This theory confuses the mainland’s de-velopment of Taiwan region immigrants with the colonial activities of Western countries,and has a similar narra-tive pattern with the“Historical perspective of Taiwan region independence.”But,various historical records have already fully proved that the main reason for the immigration activities to Taiwan region at that time came from the mainland,and the leading cause of the immigration activities was the mainland officials and the peo-ple,not the Dutch colonists.The relationship between the Dutch colonists and the mainland immigrants was by no means“interdependent,”and the development of various industries in Taiwan region at that time was based on the cruel exploitation of the blood and sweat of the mainland immigrants.Both mainland immi-grants and Taiwan region ethnic minorities were victims of Dutch colonial rule,and even united to resist in vari-ous forms.They were the focus of suspicion and prevention by the Dutch colonists.The theory of“co-colo-nization”is a serious distortion of the history of the mainland’s immigration and development of Taiwan region in the era of the Dutch occupation.
