授業の概要と目的(何を学ぶか)Outline and objectives
This course looks at Japanese society through the lens of globalization and its transnational relations with foreigners and foreign societies. On the one hand, Japan’s relative geographical isolation as an archipelago surrounded by the sea has cultivated a unique aesthetic culture that attracts people across the world in recent times, as well as being one of the driving forces behind its economic development. Yet, at the same time, this could also be a critical factor in generating a peculiar social system and norms that sometimes generate a considerable gap with the “global standards.” Hence, in theory, the global process would be an agency that shapes, reshapes, and alters the social structure in both positive and negative ways. As such, how does globalization - the closer integration of the countries and peoples of the world, especially after the 1980s - affect the change in contemporary Japanese society? The course will explore this question through reading and discussing the effect of transnationalism – both inbound/import and outbound/export - on migration, work, civil society, tourism, education, family, culture, identity, language, Olympics, among others. The course also introduces theoretical approaches to understand globalization and transnationalism.
到達目標Goal
The primary goal of this class is to gain an alternative understanding of Japanese society that could not be seen only observing from the perspective of the nation-state. Taking the transnational and relational approach would then provide us with insights into why and how Japan is changing in this contemporary era. Students are expected to gain skills and knowledge to critically analyze Japanese globalization through a comparative approach with other countries from East Asia, North America, Europe, among other regions that you are familiar with.

The course follows a mixed lecture-seminar format, combining short lectures, discussions, and group work designed for ESOP students at Hosei. In the class, followed by the instructor’s lecture, participants are expected to discuss the topics through a critical reading of the assigned materials. There will be a group project to work on, and we will allocate time to discuss the project with your group members. Each group will make a short presentation on the final week of the class, and students will write a final assignment individually based on the findings from the group work.
The instructor will provide feedback on the presentations during the class. Students can also access the instructor during office hours (prior appointment needed).
