Résumé
With the prevailing concepts of public participation and social inclusion, and citizen's cry for high quality and efficient public services, local governments have faced new challenges in their territorial governance and in sustaining residential welfare. This paper discusses impacts of industrial changes on local terrotorial governance. Specifically, this paper reports the establishment of a newly-established sicence park in Taiwan, and its effects on the environment and residents' perception towards their welfare and actors influencing their welfare. The findings show that, although literature suggests modern governance is networked by various stakeholders of the territory, in Taiwan residents' mind, the most influential actor that affect theirs welfare during a time of change is still the public authority - local governments. The other actors have various influences and contributions.
