本文是作者近年來對「在臺灣的人類學諸歷史」進行重讀與再思考的初步總結。 旨在於針對日本殖民地人類學「臺灣研究」及其「次東方學主義」 -- 特別是關於原住民的 論詰 -- 進行批判的反省與解構；這個總結為作者對漢人國族人類學進行重讀與再評價提供 了反省的基礎。文章首先對東方學主義反省之闕如的現象提出質疑；次就漢人國族人類學對 日本殖民地人類的認同加以解構。在史誌重構的基礎上，文章也對日本殖民地人類學的政經 理脈與論詰構造粗加分析，從而對日本次帝國困局及其倆手間的「學術潮流」試作理脈敏感 的理解。文末，作者以芝加哥大學史多謹教授四十年來在「人類學歷史」上的論詰踐行為例 ，與新生的臺灣殖民地人類學、臺灣國族人類學之歷史研究及其袪殖民踐行互愓互勉。

　　　　　This paper is the frist installment of a larger reseach project which aims at re-reading and re-thinking the Anthropological discourses -- specially those on the "aborigines" -- on Taiwan. The project attempts to initiate a deconstruction as well as an alternative narration of the discipline's past, historically and politically. Based on the observation of the amazing lack of reflexion on Orientalism -- both in Japan and in Taiwan --, the paper firstly identified the collusive nature of the Han-national(ist) Anthropology vis-a-vis its predecessor., i. e. the Japanese Colonial Anthropology. In a context-sensitive fashion, the paper seeks to analyze the politico-economic conditions and discursive imparatives involved in the various phases of an anthropological exercise of imperial otherization/appropriation. Reviewing the career of George Stocking's works on histories of American Anthropology, the author suggests that a more self-reflexive and context-sensitive approach be incorporated into the newly devoloping studies of Japanese Colonial Anthropology and deconstruction of Han-national(ist) Anthropology in Taiwan.
