【歷屆「和平之海」簡介】

和平之海和平營在2014年夏天首次於濟州島舉辦，之後陸續在沖繩、台灣、石垣、金門、宮古等地聚集，並加入來自菲律賓、關島、夏威夷等第的參與者，致力於島嶼間的亞際串聯與和平對話。這是一由公民團體自發籌組的行動，通常皆由營隊最後決定下一屆舉辦地點和籌辦人，為保持活動自主性，不接受國家補助，。

【本屆「和平之海」課程理念】

「從清治末期到戰後初期，基隆城一直有著無限可能，作為實體和想像邊境的一部分，在帝國和民族國家的交界處占有重要位置。」——《成為臺灣人：殖民城市基隆下的民族形成（1880s-1950s）》

歷史上的台灣經歷了多次政權更迭，持續處於地緣政治的夾縫中，並深受各種形式的殖民主義影響。作為北台灣最重要的港口，基隆難能可貴地留下了這每一次更迭的歷史沉積。

在基隆，我們看到在帝國擴張階段，荷蘭、西班牙、日本、甚至法國的殖民擴張，所帶來的戰爭影響；我們看到二次世界大戰、國共內戰之下，來自朝鮮、琉球和中國大陸的人民，如何遷徙和流離；我們看到外來政權為了鞏固自身，對本地人民進行的統治手段和暴力鎮壓；我們也看到戰爭和軍事化的設施，在不同政權是如何被沿用或再造。

可以說，透過這些歷史交疊出的基隆，我們看到戰爭和軍事化的影響，在政權之間的連續關係，並始終會影響到橫跨國籍、族群和地域的不同人民。

在台灣歷史上，基隆是承受或向外投射軍事力量的重要港口。今天，我們希望奠基在這樣的歷史認識和對戰爭的省思上，能讓這裡成為群島人民攜手團結，以及島際和平的啟航之處。

History of ‘Peace for the sea’

The ‘Peace for the sea’ Peace Camp was first held in the summer of 2014 on Jeju Island. Since then, participants have gathered successively in locations such as Okinawa, Taiwan, Ishigaki, Kinmen, and Miyako, joined by participants from the Philippines, Guam, Hawaii, and beyond. The initiative is dedicated to fostering inter-island, Inter-Asia connections and peace dialogues.

This is an initiative spontaneously organized by civil society groups. Typically, the participants decide the location and organizers for the next session at the end of each gathering. To maintain its autonomy, the event does not accept state funding.

This Year’s ‘Peace for the sea’ Program

“Jilong stood at the forefront of Taiwan’s modern transformations. As part of a physical and imagined frontier that changed sovereign territorial designations from the Great Qing to the Empire of Japan to the Republic of China, it occupied a crucial space in the borderland between Chinese and Japanese cultural spheres, empires, and nation-states. ”
— Becoming Taiwanese: Ethnogenesis in a Colonial City, Keelung (1880s–1950s)

 

Taiwan has undergone multiple regime changes throughout history, continuously caught in geopolitical tensions and deeply influenced by various forms of colonialism. As the most significant port in northern Taiwan, Keelung has uniquely preserved the historical imprints of each transition.
In Keelung, we witness the impacts of wars brought by colonial expansions of the Dutch, Spanish, Japanese, and even the French. We see how people from Korea, the Ryukyu Islands, and mainland China migrated and were displaced due to World War II and the Chinese Civil War. We observe how foreign regimes consolidated their rule through governance tactics and violent suppression, and how military infrastructures were repurposed or reconstructed by successive administrations.
Through the historical layers embedded in Keelung, we see how war and militarization transcend regimes, shaping the lives of people across national, ethnic, and regional boundaries.
Throughout Taiwanese history, Keelung has been both a recipient of military force and a launching point for outward military projection. Today, grounded in this historical awareness and critical reflection on war, we hope to turn this space into a starting point for solidarity among islanders and a launchpad for inter-island peace.
