【授業の概要と目的(何を学ぶか) / Outline and objectives】
Continuing with what they have learned in the spring semester in "Seminar: Intersectionality I", students will read and critique social theories and research informed by an intersectional perspective that aims at understanding the complex, intersecting nature of social inequalities. In the process, they will acquire tools and develop perspectives to apply to their own research.

【到達目標 / Goal】
The main goal of this seminar is to develop students' sensitivity towards issues of inequality related to race, class, gender, sexuality, nationality and so on, and expose them to the cutting-edge theoretical and empirical works in the developing field of “intersectionality".
Another goal is to develop students' skills in social research, discussion, presentation, and writing. Learning to evaluate and critique ideas and research is a particularly important goal in this seminar.

This is a continuation of the seminar in the Spring semester, with the same emphasis but more time devoted to student research. The seminar research and readings, as much as possible, will be based on students’ individual research interests. Feedback is given orally after each presentation and discussion, and comments are given to individual students on every assignment submitted. Talks by seminar alumni on their careers and connection of the seminar to their work will be scheduled in November and December. An updated schedule will be provided in class.
