授業の目的 【英語】 Goals of the Course | | As the world becomes increasingly globalized and interconnected, international movements of people have likewise increased. This course aims to introduce migration studies as a subfield of political science (although it can sometimes overlap with sociology), providing a brief history of migration in the modern world, an overview of what current migratory patterns look like, and a discussion of current problems nations face in terms of international migration. Given that many international students at Nagoya University likely have some immigration experience, a deeper understanding of international migration patterns can be enlightening. |
