授業の目的 【英語】
Goals of the Course | | | As students are already living in Japan and very likely have some immigration experience, this course should be particularly relevant. This course is intended to provide students with an understanding of contemporary immigration in Japan, including what the situation looks like for various categories of immigrants in Japan, any issues they are contending with, and their future prospects. |

Objectives of the Course | | | Because students will all have some first-hand experience living in Japan, it is important to obtain a better understanding of the society and how immigrants fit into it. Whether you have foreign roots yourself or are from Japan originally, you should have some personal relevance in engaging with this topic. Japanese migration is a subject that is not commonly studied, in spite of the fact that the immigrant population is steadily growing as the Japanese population ages. Additionally, the issues surrounding growing migration and social aging are not limited to Japan. Many of the world’s developed and developing countries will experience similarly aging populations and changing migratory flows. Japan happens to be on the cusp, and serves as a lesson for other nations, both positive and negative. |
