自 1987 年臺灣方面開放民眾赴中國大陸探親伊始，在歷經 20 年 廣泛而全面的交流後，兩岸之間原本潛存著各種「看不見的差異」正 日漸浮現，彼此雙方漸漸地看見了對方─「他者」，一個意向的真實 對象，而不再是一個過去雙方政府宣傳中「我們的同胞」之意象虛構 的對象。同時，雙方民眾也從「鏡中我」產生了一種相對於「他者」 的「我們意識」之建構。實際上，在兩岸實際的社會交流與互動過程 中，所有參與交流的民眾均可能面臨情境認同與身分認同的兩難困 境，以及彼此都是對方的「他者」之身分再確認過程。因此，身分認 同成了兩岸社會交流與互動過程中的核心議題，而多數臺灣民眾的身 分認同則正處在一種「自我」與「他者」的「分合」遽變中。

Since the Taiwan government deregulated family visits to Mainland China in 1987, thriving cross-strait exchanges over the past twenty years have brought hidden invisible divides to surface. Each side has gradually begun to see the opposite side – the other – as a real subject, instead of as a projected image shaped by the government’s propaganda. People of either side have built from the mirror reflection a “we-feeling” as opposed to the “others”. In social exchanges and interactions, many have been caught between situational identity and personal identification and must go through a process of confirming self identity in the other’s eyes of the other. While identity remains the core issue of cross-strait social exchanges, many Taiwan people are in the process of fragmengration of self and the rebuilding of other
