This course is conducted by two lecturers (Hosoya & Tamamura), respectively specialized in cultural anthropology and international relations. All classes will be conducted in English.

(Hosoya) Sub-theme: gFood culture of the worldh. Food culture is the fundamental part of our daily life and culture, although not many of us are well aware of that. Food is not only the means to obtain energy for survival, but through what we eat, we participate in the society. The objective of this course is to reconsider what food means to us, comparatively studying global food culture.[Approx. 40 mins. lecture; 30 mins. watching related motion pictures in English; 20 mins. writing (participation paper)]

(Tamamura) Sub-theme:gWorld Politicsh - The aim of the political side of this course is to offer basic knowledge on world politics. Giving some weight on the matter of peace and war, the course tries to give students an opportunity to give some thoughts about how the world looks like and what is happening around the world.[40 mins. lecture, 40 mins. listening and discussion, 10 mins. writing (participation paper)]

Students (by an individual or a group) are required to make an oral presentation on a topic related to world politics or food culture, in the last two classes of the semester. Students will pick the topic, either from those that they have studied in the class or one they choose from other readings (including the assigned reference books). The presentation should be in English, for approx. 15 minutes. (More details to be announced at the class)
