本文為《臺灣史研究》之創立沿革、發展過程、組織架構、編審制度及主題特色等面向之全盤回顧與檢討。結論則對未來最需改正的項目、擴展的方向提出具體意見，期望提昇《臺灣史研究》的深度與廣度，成為臺灣史研究的主流刊物。 　　《臺灣史研究》創刊至今已達15年，一路走來，變革甚多，相關細節也已成為中央研究院臺灣史研究所之創所歷史的一部份。本文除了對學界彰顯臺史所對學術期刊水準的堅持及嚴謹的制度設計外，亦能指陳近十餘年臺灣史學界的研究動態、主題消長，更可在「史學史」的範疇中，初步建構臺灣史研究領域的發展，並在將來產生關鍵性的貢獻。透過回顧過去與展望未來的視角，重新開拓新的研究領域，並重構臺灣歷史的進程。

This paper offers an overall retrospective review and assessment of Taiwan Historical Research through tracing its founding and development, detailing its organization structure and publication system, as well as exploring the thematic characteristics of different issues. Concrete suggestions on areas for future improvement and directions for prospective expansion are proposed in the conclusion of this paper in the hope of broadening the scope and enhancing the depth of Taiwan Historical Research as a leading journal in research of Taiwan history. Throughout the 15 years of publication, Taiwan Historical Research has undergone much change and its transformation has constituted a part of the founding of the Institute of Taiwan History, Academia Sinica. This paper highlights to the scholarly circles the insistence of the Institute on quality of academic journal and the rigorous publication system it established. At the same time, it also reveals the trends and evolution of past research focus, which lay the groundwork for and contribute to the study on Taiwan historical research in the domain of historiography. The retrospective review added to the prospective view fosters further exploration of new research themes and help restructure the past development of Taiwan history.
