本文針對2011 年10 月中發生的佔領中環行動,分析其產生的脈 絡、動員過程、內部動態關係及後果。這場行動主要受到佔領華爾街 的啟發,但裡面所包含的元素卻非常複雜,參與者則帶著不同目的來 到佔領區:有的佔領者希望在香港培養反對資本主義的文化,有的把 當它做是體驗另類生活的實驗場所,其他人則藉此表達對金融機構及 特區政府的不滿。我根據當時所做的田野觀察及深度訪談考察了這些 組成元素及關係,指出造成這場行動之受限於自身的理念與實踐、無 法變成政治主體的多重因素。本文參照了拉克勞對於民粹主義的概念 框架,對後續的佔領運動提出了看法。
This article offers an account of the episodes, dynamics and consequences of the first Occupy Central that lasted for a prolonged period of time during 2011-2012. It portrays the political context within which the rally took shape, its members’ attempt to construct an united front in the name of ‘anticapitalism’, as well as the organizational dynamics and internal division that persisted during the occupation. It investigates the ways occupation offers a site for democratic experiments and displays of autonomy. The experiment of selforganization undertaken by the occupiers, I propose, is a reaction to the territory’s crisis of political representation, yet the strategy of withdrawal from the state and the rejection of representation would prevent the occupation encampment from becoming a truly political subject.
