Exploring Ethnic Interaction and Culture Reinvention from Perspectives of Exchange: A
study of Miaoli Atayal in the Early Japanese Colonial Period
Mei-Hsia Wang
ABSTRACT
How “exchange” works as a mechanism to link social sub-systems has
been discussed by many anthropologists. Mauss emphasized society as a
totality: economy is not independent of kinship, religion and politics, but
rather all of these four aspects are considered as a whole. He, however,
neglected to consider how the same form of behavior may have different
meanings according to local contexts, and what the dynamics of social
change involve.
This paper investigates the transformation of capitalism from locals’
viewpoints of exchange. The meaning of exchange in local contexts is firstly
considered; especially, how exchange connects and transforms relationships
among different levels. Further questions follow, including how the locals
perceive the exchange process and measure the value of objects, and
whether images of money synthesize several meanings and themselves
embody history in Atayal society.
My previous research suggested that the Atayal have not become
alienated from each other and from their products by changes. In deciding
whether to become involved in growing new crops, they are not solely
influenced by questions of market price and stability, but they also take into
account how the new crops fit into their traditional understanding of work and

the values they place on it. As my previous research focused on one
community only, I try in this paper to further explore the transformation of
capitalism in wider contexts. This research, therefore, combines the
perspectives of historical and area studies to focus on issues such as various
ways of exchange in different periods and areas, creation of social
relationships and culture, and the agency of history.
Keywords: exchange, ethnic relation, reinvention of culture, Japanese
colonization, Miaoli, the Atayal
