The goals of this course are for students to be able to
1. develop overall English language skills while learning about African cultures and societies.
2. explain the characteristics of the relationships between Africa and other regions in the world.
3. gain an understanding of African people’s lives today, as well as their daily social and cultural activities in a globalized world.
Using English, students will be able to study academic subjects in a structured way at the undergraduate level. Students can learn the basic knowledge of the subject and the special language used in the subject in English.
This course is an introduction to the social and cultural topics of Africa. By exploring how history, culture, and power shape our conceptualization of the world and its peoples, the course tracks how legacies of colonialism and imperialism in Africa continue to inform contemporary issues of economic development, governance, and globalization. After a general overview of geography, ethnicity, language, and colonial history in the first part of the course, we will focus on a number of important contemporary issues including population, urbanization, economic development, resources, governance, etc.
