自1988 年開始的「台灣原住民族運動」，當時原運團體除了對內積極爭取原住民族權利外，同時也 積極的與國際社會接軌，藉此以吸取國外原住民族經驗。而「原住民族還我土地運動」，乃係將傳統土地 權、自然主權等原住民族權利觀念導入運動的訴求中，使得原住民族議題之定位提升至原住民族與國家 之間的層級（nation to nation），這一點對於後續的原運有相當深遠的影響。 因為原住民族運動所努力的結果，使得台灣原住民族意識抬頭，因此於2005 至2008 年間鄒族人對 於阿里山BOT 開發案進行一波波的抗爭行動。最後阿里山BOT 開發案依然通過，同一時間發生在南投 日月潭邊的邵族BOT 開發案卻能被阻止。這令筆者不禁思考：同樣都是發生在原住民族傳統領域上的 BOT 開發案，也是當地原住民族進行抗爭行動，為何成功阻止了發生在邵族傳統領域上BOT 開發案， 然而發生在鄒族傳統領域上的BOT 開發案卻未能制止？ 質疑，並非批評與否定；而是進入更深沈的理解與關懷。由於筆者針對以上種種疑問的關注，本研 究將重新檢視阿里山BOT 事件，試圖以資料之彙整再次呈現該事件的相關參與者，以及鄒族反對該BOT 開發案之原由。將分析討論從政府部門(中央與地方)的角度，和阿里山BOT 抗爭中利益關係者（Stake Holder)之間的互動以解析阿里山BOT 事件，以期望能夠找出筆者所關鍵問題的答案，並藉此作為日後 NGO 組織培力之依據。 Since 1988, Taiwan Aboriginal organizations have been actively raised movements to fight for aboriginal rights. Meanwhile, Aboriginal peoples were empowered by experience exchange with international Indigenous peoples. The movement of “return our land” which contained the concept of traditional land rights and natural rights raised the position of aboriginal issues to Nation-to-Nation (Indigenous peoples to Taiwan government). This was the key that not only raises Taiwan aboriginal awareness, also enhances a far-reaching impact of the follow-up of the Aboriginal movement. During 2005 to 2008, COU people, one of the Taiwan indigenous people who have been inhabited in Ali Mountain area, organized a great deal protest actions against the Ali. Mountain B.O.T.. (Ali. Mountain Forest Railway Development Projects). This research collects information of the Ali. Mountain B.O.T. and reconstructs the elements of the COU people opposing the BOT development projects. It also tries to analyze and discuss this event from the viewpoint of a central and local government and stakeholders of the movement. In this study, I attempt to explore the appropriate factor for the main concern, and provide the example to other non-government organizations for their future movements.
