About Work

The Detention Center of the Military Law Bureau was the site where political prisoners were incarcerated in the martial law period in Taiwan. Chen revisited this site in 2007 to consider whether the martial law has really been lifted, whether “exclusion” and “supervision” continue to be the means for social control, whether the “dissenting” voices from different races, societies and classes be heard, and whether the “martial law” still governs some people (e.g. migrant workers, foreign spouses, unemployed workers, and vagrants) in Taiwan.
