【Course Objectives】

Through "dialog" using texts on social science classics, etc. on the theme of civic society, we will clarify the meaning of what it means for citizens (yourself) to face social issues and to be responsible for their solutions.
Regarding "civic society" which can be regarded as a premise of social design, people tend to stick with stereotypes or intuitive understanding if anything, but this course will be an opportunity for students to think about the relationship of citizens with government and society.
At the same time, as a concrete example of the direction that civic society in the present day aims for, we will take up the case where citizens themselves have created the basic rules (laws) of the local community, and learn their principles and structures, to create a basic position from which students will be able to make recommendations.

【Course Contents】

In the first half, in order to understand the basic way of thinking about civic society, students will read the classics written on democracy, independent individuals, and civic society structure, etc. and identify relationships between society and individuals through dialog among students.
In the second half, we will take up the case of resident autonomy in Niseko Town, Hokkaido, which is an advanced area for autonomy basic ordinances, and which can be said to be a culmination of the accumulation of such principles and good practices. We will look at the development and structure, etc. of the way of thinking and concrete articles behind this case, and what kind of influence the regulations have had on subsequent community development.
