الوصف: This paper examines everyday interactions, and particularly the role of traditional ritual and relationships, in the mobilization of rural social movements in Taiwan. In Chinese society, ‘ guanxi ’ (interpersonal relationships) are involved in everyday social interactions. Studies of collective action, such as social movements, cannot ignore the role that ‘ guanxi ’ play. This paper argues that collective action in Taiwan is strongly influenced by social practices, such as ‘ guanxi ’. The early part of the paper discusses social movement theories of social network, and briefly reviews ‘ guanxi ’ theory and its relationship with the concept of ‘social capital’. The later part examines the function of ‘ guanxi ’ in two recent social movements: the anti–No. 6/8 Naphtha Cracking Project (A6/8NCP) movement at Taixi and the anti–leather factory movement at Gouzao. These two social movements provide excellent case studies for rethinking how collective action functions in Taiwan.
