【Course Objectives】

This course is an introduction to global political sociology which aims at creating the conditions for students to feel at ease with the complexity of international political issues. To do so, it will be based on four objectives:
1) acquiring the basic knowledge in political sociology (theories, concepts, and authors), so as to be capable of understanding and analysing evolving situations, from a political science perspective;
2) being confronted to the diversity of international events, from both synchronic (geographical) and diachronic (historical) perspectives, so as to acquire global competence and comparative analytical skills;
3) acquiring or improving academic skills and critical thinking, beyond the field of politics;
4) practicing English through collective and issue-centred discussion. It will be assumed that the classroom is a safe space where everybody can share his/her opinion freely on the debated topics.

【Course Contents】

This course is organised so that in-class time and assignments are strongly focusing on case-studies and activities.
Lecture content will consist of written documents (pdf files) uploaded on Canvas for every content-related session. Those documents will introduce students to some of the major theories on each topic.
Activities such as readings (for text commentaries), oral presentations, and collective discussions, will tend however to focus on case-studies, either on contemporary Japan, or aiming for a “travel” in other countries or other eras.
