テーマ：Globalization, Gender and Diversity in Contemporary Japanese Political Economy I: Employment
内容：In the post-war era, Japan experienced rapid economic growth, near zero unemployment, and relatively low income inequality. Despite these achievements, women faced significant barriers to labor market participation. Moreover, recent decades have witnessed economic stagnation, growing inequality, and economic precariousness, pointing to problems with the old system. What made Japan's employment regime so effective in the post-war era and how is it responding to the challenges posed by globalization and the push for greater gender equality?

テーマ：Globalization, Gender and Diversity in Contemporary Japanese Political Economy II: Welfare
内容：Building on the first lecture, this class examines Japan's welfare regime, from the post-war to the present. While Japan was well known for having a small welfare state in the post-war era, recent decades have seen rapid population aging, a chronically low birth rate, and growing economic insecurity for many people, all of which have necessitated a major rethink of Japan's welfare state. How is Japan adapting to the challenges posed by globalization and demographic change and what are the consequences for gender equality and inclusion?

テーマ：Globalization, Gender and Diversity in Contemporary Japanese Political Economy III: Migration
内容：This lecture looks at the question of immigration and ethno-cultural diversity in Japan. While Japan is often thought of as a monoethnic, monocultural society, this impression hides the reality of various minority groups that have lived in Japan since the pre-war era of Japanese imperialism and before. Moreover, recent years of population decline, labor shortages and economic stagnation have driven a gradual shift towards the acceptance of foreign workers. How will this shift to a more open immigration system impact Japanese society and what challenges and opportunities await?

テーマ：Gender and Migration in Japan: Focusing on Economies of Care and Intimacy
内容：Although Japan is one of the top destination countries for international migrants, many people tend to think of Japan as ethnically and culturally homogeneous compared to other countries. One reason behind such false recognition may be because migrants are likely to be regarded as temporary labor resources, not as people who are deeply involved in every-day social relations in Japan. This class will explore the globalized economy of care and intimacy in Japan, focusing on the experiences of migrant women in this realm. By critically looking into the intersection of gender and migration, we will discuss how globalization affects interpersonal and intergenerational relations at migrant-receiving and migrant-sending countries.

テーマ：Youth culture and cultural diversity in Japan: Japanese culture in globalization
内容：This class examines the current state of Japanese youth culture and pop culture from a sociological perspective, with a focus on the underground idol scene from the 2010s onward. First, we will examine the situation of "late youth" in the context of the extension of the youth period.

We will also examine the possibilities and problems associated with this scene.

テーマ：Culture and Perception: How are perceptual processes influenced by culture?
内容：In the current world of diversity, people from various cultural backgrounds get together, share ideas, and have discussions. Culture may influence our way of thinking and communication, but do people from different cultures perceive things differently? In this lecture, students will explore how culture may or may not influence perception through simple experiments, discussions, and group work. The findings reported in research papers and books will be introduced as supplemental materials. The lecture is interactive, involves pair and group work, and welcomes student participation.
