Notes

【Course Objectives】

By the end of this course, students should be able to:

1. Apply relevant social theories about gendered experiences and phenomena to address gender-related social issues.

2. Describe how gender ideologies and practices operate within various social institutions and across different cultures and societies and analyze how social structures shape gendered identities and experiences through ethnographic analysis.

【Course Contents】

This course aims to help students understand gender as a social construct influenced by sociocultural factors while recognizing that biological elements may also play a role. We will review various social theories related to gender and sexuality, examining how perceptions of gender differ across different sexual orientations. Key debates in social theories will be discussed, including the concept of universal male dominance and how gender intersects with race, class, and nationality. We will analyze the impact of social, political, and economic institutions on gender norms and practices, with a particular focus on Japan. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to explore gender-related topics for their writing assignments.
